Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 Eggs, large
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 3 cups Fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
- 0.5 cups Light brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round or square baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the sliced peaches, reserving a few slices for topping if desired.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle the top with light brown sugar and a pinch of ground nutmeg (if using). Arrange the reserved peach slices decoratively on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Before serving, dust with powdered sugar for a decorative finish. Serve warm or at room temperature.
