Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Gently fold 2 cups of the sliced peaches into the batter, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
In a small bowl, toss the remaining 1 cup of sliced peaches with the ground cinnamon and brown sugar. Arrange these peach slices on top of the cake batter.
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 run a knife around the edges and turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the cake as is, or pair it with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
