  • Sift 2 3/4 cups flour, baking powder, and salt together into a bowl; gradually stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
  • Place remaining 1/4 cup flour into a small bowl. Add peaches and toss to coat, then fold floured peaches into batter. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
