    Delicious. My ramekins overflowed a bit in the oven. Next time I would probably make more; four just isn't enough of something this good. And I am actually trying to figure out how to make this as one big cake, too. I loved it.

    LOVE this recipe. I wish I would have doubled it because they went quick! So quick and easy. We used fresh peaches that we had just picked at our local U-Pick farm. I will make this again and again. WONDERFUL!

    These were delicious! I like individual servings, so wanted to make these for company even though I didn't have any peaches...so BANANA upside down cakes were born! I did everything the same, but no ginger & added about 1/2 tbsp. of spiced rum with the sugar & butter. Can't wait to try with peaches, but plan to make them with any other fruit I have at the time, too. Thanks, Alton - love your geeky info!!

    Very good. I think I used more butter in each ramikin than it said. I had to bake longer.

    confession time: i didnt have any butter at home but remembered reading that i could sucstitute with apple sauce for a healthier swap? so i risked it and although im still dying to try the actual recipe, the cake was moist and not too sweet.

    i will definetly be making this again soon. :

    My husband and I have prepared this dish for friends, family and sometimes for just the two of us! The individual servings are the perfect portion size and this dish is always a huge hit. This is without question one of our favorite desserts! Thanks Alton!!

    I made this recipe twice, once with peaches, and once with cherries, and they came out very good. The second time I made it, I followed some advice from another reviewer and added a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg, and it came out even better. I will definitely make this again, and experiment with other fruits.

    Oh, and I never added any ginger, because I wasn't sure if I was going to like the taste or not.

    This dessert was absolutely amazing! I tried to follow the recipe exactly but I don't think my ramekins were big enough so I could only fit about one peach so I toned down the ginger a bit in comparison but other than that I followed it exactly. I need to get some bigger ramekins! The ginger was amazing with the peaches and it didn't need any other spices. I really want to memorize this recipe, it seems the perfect one to whip up in a pinch. I served it with good vanilla ice cream and everyone I served it to was very happy. Yeah Alton!
