Are you looking for an easy cake to bake in your BBQ? You've never baked in your BBQ? Well it's time! Your barbecue grill is an oven and you should use it like one. This recipe is the perfect starter recipe for giving it a try. Just remember one thing – indirect heat! If you don't you'll have burnt cake ….
Cast Iron Skillet Up-side Down Cake
2 large peaches, peeled and sliced
½ tsp pumpkin spice – divided
¼ cup melted butter
½ cup brown sugar, packed
1 package of spice or yellow cake mix
10” cast iron skillet
BBQ grill – charcoal or gas
Preheat grill to 350° F.
Mix cake mix according to package instructions. Peel and slice peaches. Heat skillet on grill and melt butter, add brown sugar and a ¼ tsp of pumpkin spice. Mix remainder of spice into cake mix. Place peaches in bottom of skillet in an even layer. Pour cake mix over the peaches.
Bake on indirect heat for 35 to 40 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted into center comes out clean.
Place a 10” plate on top of the cake and very carefully turn over and serve. (Don't leave it in the skillet! It will continue to cook and burn your cake)
Until next time!

The cast iron upside down peach cake looks very simple but delicious. I have a lot of cast iron skillets we use all the time but I have yet to try cooking a cake in one over indirect heat on the grill. I am put this on my list of things to try right away. Thanks for the great recipes.
