Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Incorporate the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternately with the sour cream, starting and ending with the flour mixture. This helps to maintain a balanced texture.
- Fold in Peaches: Gently fold in the chopped peaches, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
- Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Add Topping: In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon with brown sugar and sprinkle this mixture over the batter.
- Bake the Cake: Place the cake in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the dish before slicing. Serve each piece as is or with a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.
