Incorporate 2 tablespoons of cooking oil into the mixture.

Mix 1/4 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder with flour (amount not specified) and add to the wet mixture.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix on low until combined.

Pour the thick batter into a greased baking pan (sprayed with grease and flour).

Slice 2 large peaches in half, remove the pit, and cut into wedges.

Press the peach wedges into the batter, skin side up and down, until the top is covered with peaches.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 45-50 minutes, checking with a skewer for doneness.

Optionally, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
