Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delicious cake. Remember, substitutions are your friends, just like how my mom could make magic with a can of tomatoes and a few spices.
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice)
- 3–4 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
Instructions
Let’s dive into the process. Remember, a little mess is part of the charm!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Pour in the buttermilk and mix until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay.
- Gently fold in the sliced peaches, being sure to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown and the kitchen filled with the smell of heaven.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
