Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup canned peaches, drained and chopped
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons peach juice (from canned peaches)
Optional Substitutions:
- For a dairy-free option, replace sour cream with coconut cream.
- If you’re gluten-intolerant, use a gluten-free flour blend.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Combine mixtures: Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture alternately with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Fold in the chopped peaches.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and drizzle: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and peach juice until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
Notes
- Ensure your butter is softened to room temperature for a smooth batter.
- Fold the peaches gently into the batter to keep them intact.
