How to Make Brown Sugar Peach Cake
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Ensure you grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan to prevent sticking.
Cream together the softened butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl for even distribution.
Combine the dry ingredients with the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, and mix until just combined.
Fold in the sliced peaches gently, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle the top with cinnamon for added flavor.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy your delicious Brown Sugar Peach Cake on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream.
For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season peaches, and ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier creaming.
