Ingredients
For the Cake:
3 cups All Purpose Flour
3 cups Granulated Sugar
6 Large Eggs
1 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Almond Extract (optional)
1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 cups Fresh or Canned Peaches, diced
1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon (for coating peaches)
For the Topping:
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
2 tablespoons Butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish or bundt pan.
- In a small bowl, toss the diced peaches with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the cinnamon-coated peaches.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or bundt pan and spread it out evenly.
- In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon for the topping, then sprinkle it evenly over the top of the batter.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the topping.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
