🍑 Choose ripe but firm freestone peaches like Elberta or Georgia Belle, which hold their shape well during baking.
🔥 Never skip heating the peach mixture on the stove, as this step concentrates the juices and prevents the fruit from drying out.
⏳ Resist the urge to stir after pouring batter over melted butter; the magic happens when the batter rises through the peaches naturally.
