Preheat oven to 350°F (≈175°C). Grease or line a 10" springform pan.
Mix dry ingredients: 2 cups flour, baking powder, cinnamon. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat milk, brown sugar, sour cream, softened butter, egg, and vanilla until creamy.
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet just until blended. Fold in sliced peaches.

Use ripe, but not overly soft peaches to maintain structure.

Don’t overmix batter after adding peaches to preserve lightness.
-
Cold butter in topping ensures crispness.

Glaze just before serving so it doesn’t melt away.
