Description
A delightful Peach Upside Down Cake featuring a caramelized topping of peaches and a moist, fluffy cake.
Ingredients
Scale
- Peach Topping
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 cups peach slices
- Cake
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/3 cup milk
Instructions
- In the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate, melt the butter.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter and sprinkle the cinnamon over that.
- Arrange the peach slices around the pie plate and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg, sour cream and vanilla and mix until well-combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix.
- Slowly pour the milk into the batter and mix until just combined.
- Pour into the pie plate over the peaches and spread to an even layer.
- Bake for 20 minutes, then cover with aluminum foil (you’ll want to tent it – don’t cover too tightly). If the cake sticks to the foil, don’t worry about it….remember, it’s an upside down cake!
- Bake an additional 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for 5 minutes, then run a butter knife around the edge of the pie pan and flip over onto a serving platter.
- Enjoy warm or room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use ripe peaches.
- If fresh peaches are out of season, canned peaches can be used.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
