Peach Upside Down Cake

I still have a few peaches left in the fridge so I decided to make this simple but flavorful cake. This cake might look like a difficult, fancy cake to make but it’s actually quite easy. Great for entertaining your friends or just dinner with the family. As usual if you can’t find fresh peaches you can always substitute it with plumps, nectarines or even apples.

Ingredients for topping:

4 tbsp butter
3 tbsp brown sugar
3 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

Ingredients for the cake:

1 stick of butter (1/2 cup or 113 grms)
3/4 cup sugar
2 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tbsp of milk
1 tsp of orange zest

1. Line and greased an 8” round pan. Prepare the topping. Melt the butter and brown sugar. Pour it to the base of baking pan. Arrange the peach slices in a circle over the base. Set it aside.
2. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degree F. Cream butter and sugar together until light and creamy. Beat in the egg one at a time until well combined.
3. Add in vanilla and orange zest. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Slow down the mixer and slowly add in the flour alternately with the 2 tbsp of milk. Mix until combined.
4. Spread the batter over the peaches and bake the cake for 50 minutes or until golden brown. Let cake cool in pan for 10 minutes before inverting it to a serving plate.
