Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams all-purpose flour
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 115 grams unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 120 milliliters milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 3 medium ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
Arrange the peach slices on top of the batter in a circular pattern, slightly pressing them into the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar if desired. Serve and enjoy!
