Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt.
  3. Add the softened butter to the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped peaches.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
  8. To make the streusel topping, combine 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a medium bowl.
  9. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
  10. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the cake batter.
  11. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can use frozen peaches if fresh ones are not available. Thaw and drain them well before using.
  • For an extra burst of flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the streusel topping.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature. It’s delicious on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
