Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
How to Make Peach Cream Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
- Fold in the sliced peaches gently, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the whipped topping. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar and cinnamon, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Once the cake is completely cool, spread the whipped cream topping evenly over the top and garnish with additional peach slices and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Use ripe, fresh peaches for the best flavor. If they’re slightly firm, let them ripen at room temperature before using.
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature to ensure easy creaming with sugar.
- Don’t overmix the batter to keep the cake light and fluffy.
- Chill the heavy cream before whipping for better volume.
Easy Variations
- Substitute fresh peaches with other fruits like strawberries or blueberries for a different flavor profile.
- Add a splash of almond extract to the whipped cream for an extra layer of flavor.
- For a more decadent treat, spread a layer of peach preserves between the cake and whipped topping.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
- Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
- A drizzle of caramel sauce for added sweetness.
Storage and Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The cake is best enjoyed fresh, but if needed, you can gently reheat individual slices in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds.
