Delicious Peach Cake Recipe for Summer Desserts

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced (Peeled and pitted for best texture)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted (Can substitute with vegetable oil)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Prepare the Peaches

    In a bowl, toss the sliced peaches with a tablespoon of sugar and set aside to macerate.

    This helps to bring out the natural sweetness of the peaches.
  3. Mix the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Add in the flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix until just combined.

    Avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender.
  4. Fold in Peaches

    Gently fold the macerated peaches into the batter until evenly distributed.

    Reserve a few slices for topping if desired.
  5. Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

    Check at 30 minutes to avoid overbaking.
  6. Cool and Serve

    Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Serve with whipped cream or ice cream for extra indulgence.
