Peach cake soft, tender, and delicious. How good are peaches! A sweet and delightful summer fruit perfect to enjoy at the end of a meal and great as an ingredient in many desserts. Today I used some very sweet peaches to make a super soft cake, tender and delicious. Lots of peach cubes in the batter and many slices on top with the result of a peach dessert perfect for breakfast, a snack, or anytime during the day. For the peaches, I used nectarine peaches or nectarines, but you can choose to use yellow peaches, white peaches, or percoche. A very simple batter to prepare to which I added both white flour and a portion of whole wheat flour for a special rustic flavor.

How to prepare the Peach Cake
Wash the peaches. Dice half and slice the others. I used nectarines without peeling them. You can choose to peel them and use another type of peach.
Beat the 2 eggs with the sugar using an electric mixer for 6-7 minutes until you have a light and fluffy mixture
Add the sunflower oil and a container of peach yogurt. Mix
Now add the white flour, whole wheat flour, and baking powder. Mix
Add the diced peaches to the batter and mix with a spatula to incorporate them into the batter
Pour the batter into a 20 cm (8-inch) diameter cake pan, preferably with a removable bottom, greased or lined with baking paper
Arrange the peach slices on the surface in concentric circles, letting them sink slightly into the batter. Bake the Peach Cake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 35-40 minutes.
Always do the toothpick test to check the internal doneness of the cake. Let the cake cool before removing it from the pan onto a serving plate and decorate it as desired with some powdered sugar
