Equipment
- 9-inch round cake pan or cast iron skillet
- Mixing bowls
- Electric mixer or whisk
- Spatula
- Knife and cutting board
Ingredients
- 4-5 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup (150g) brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a small saucepan, melt 1/4 cup (60g) of butter and stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Pour this mixture into the bottom of your cake pan and arrange the peach slices on top.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, beat the remaining butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter over the peach slices in the cake pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a serving plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.
