Caramelized Peach Up-Side Down Cake

3 Whole Peaches; cut into 2" wedges
1 1/2 c Sugar; divided
1/4 c Butter
1 tb Olive oil
1 ts Vanilla
1 Egg
2/3 c Milk
1 1/3 c Flour
2 ts Baking powder
Salt; to taste
1/2 c Caramel sauce; in squeeze bottle
1 Scoop Peach ice cream
Fresh mint sprigs

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a cast-iron skillet. Coat each wedge of peach using 1/2 cup of the sugar. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. Add the peaches and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the peaches caramelize. Remove from the pan and place in the greased cast-iron skillet. With an electric mixer, cream the remaining 1 cup of sugar and butter together. Add the vanilla, egg and milk. Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Pour the batter over the peaches. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Invert the cake onto a platter. Place a slice of the cake on a plate. Drizzle with caramel sauce. Garnish with ice cream and mint. This recipe yields 12 servings.
