The peach and amaretti cake is a summer dessert that is always very popular thanks to the combination of these two ingredients, which I personally love.

Very soft and fresh, it is ideal for breakfast or a snack served with a good cup of coffee or your favorite drink.

Prepared naturally without butter, as in all my recipes, and with whole cane sugar which gives this dark color to the cake.

Easy to make, it is loved by both adults and children, and for those like me who love peaches, one slice leads to another, and in a moment it’s already gone.

Steps for preparing the peach and amaretti cake

To prepare the delicious peach and amaretti cake, start by washing the peaches, removing the skin and pit, and coarsely chop the amaretti with a chopper or simply with your hands and set them aside.

Then cut 3 into small pieces for the filling and 2 peaches into thin half-round slices for decoration. Meanwhile, in two separate bowls, pour the yolks with sugar in one and the whites with a pinch of salt in the other. Then, with the electric whisk, first beat the yolks
and then the egg whites until stiff. In the meantime, add the vegetable oil in a thin stream to the beaten yolks, always mixing with the whisk, then the flour
and 50 g of crushed amaretti, and finally the baking powder. Always a little at a time and mixing with the electric whisk. Once a compact mixture is obtained, add the chopped peaches and mix with a kitchen spatula
and finally fold in the stiff egg whites. At this point, always with a spatula, gently mix from top to bottom until a uniform and nice frothy mix is obtained.
Then, line a springform pan d. 24 with parchment paper and pour our batter. Finish by placing the peach slices on the surface, letting them sink almost completely, and sprinkle with the remaining crushed amaretti.
Bake at 350°F, static oven, for about thirty minutes. Before taking it out, perform the toothpick test to check if the inside is cooked. Then, take it out, let it cool, and finally serve… enjoy your meal!
