Almond Peach Cake
My peach almond cake is soft, golden, and just the right mix of rustic and elegant ~ with juicy peaches and a tender almond crumb that stays moist for days.
Servings: 12 servings
Equipment
- 9x13 pan
- parchment paper optional
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tsp almond extract
- 3 fresh peaches, sliced
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray your 9x13 baking pan with baking spray and line with parchment paper. The paper is optional but helps you lift the cooled cake out for easier slicing and serving. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour, 3/4 cup almond flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and 1/2 tsp salt. Whisk well, and set aside.
- In a larger mixing bowl add the 1 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1 1/4 cup sugar, 3 large eggs, and 2 tsp almond extract.. Whisk everything well until smooth.
- Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and gently fold together just until a few streaks of flour still remain.
- Fold in the sliced peaches, (reserve a handful of slices for scattering on top of the batter).
- Pour the batter into your prepared baking pan, and gently nudge the batter into the corners so you have an even layer. Top with the reserved peach slices, no need to push them in, the cake will rise around them as it bakes.
- Bake for about 35-40 minutes until risen and golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out without wet batter clinging to it.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan before carefully removing for slicing and serving. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
