Ingredients
Scale
- 4–5 peaches, cored and cut into wedges
- 1 stick butter (8 tablespoons)
- 1 ¼ cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp bourbon
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a 9-inch cake pan (do not use a springform) with parchment paper and butter the paper.
- Arrange the peaches over the parchment, starting at the center and working your way out. Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon cinnamon over the peaches.
- Make the caramel by combining ¼ cup water with ½ cup sugar. Stir to combine and then heat over medium-high heat until it turns light brown. Do not stir the mixture while it is heating (about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat and quickly add 1 tablespoon bourbon and pour evenly over the peaches.
- Make the cake batter by beating the butter and ¾ cup sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla and 2 tablespoons bourbon.
- Whisk together the flours, baking powder, and remaining ¼ teaspoon cinnamon and then slowly beat it into the batter.
- Pour the batter over the peaches and smooth the surface.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick or knife comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool for 15-30 minutes before turning it out.
Notes
- Make sure to use ripe peaches for the best flavor.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
- Can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
