Dessert - Peach cake by Domnica F. - Recipia

Diced peaches sit on top of yogurt batter in a peach cake that bakes until the edges turn golden. The recipe comes from Ruxy, and we make it as a family, the girls, my mom and me; we all like it, and the fruit can change with the season. I serve it plain, alongside coffee. Preparation: 20 minutes. Cooking: 40-45 minutes. Resting: 30 minutes. Total time: 90-95 minutes. Servings: 12. About 220 kcal and 5 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

4 medium peaches (600 g)
4 eggs
175 g sugar
1 packet vanilla sugar (8 g)
6 tablespoons yogurt
5 tablespoons oil
200 g flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon salt

Preparation

1. Wash the peaches and cut them into small cubes. 2. Sift the flour into a bowl. 3. In a deeper bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar, vanilla sugar, yogurt and oil. 4. Add the sifted flour, baking powder, ginger and salt. Mix until you have a smooth batter. 5. Pour the batter into a 20 × 30 cm pan lined with baking paper and scatter the peaches on top. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 40-45 minutes, until lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 6. Let the cake cool for 30 minutes, then slice it.

Notes

Choose peaches that are ripe but still firm; very soft ones leave more juice in the pan. If they are very juicy, pat the cubes with paper towel before putting them on the batter. A 20 × 30 cm pan gives an even layer; in a smaller one, the center may need more time in the oven. If you’re serving it after a meal, start preparing it about an hour and a half beforehand so it has time to cool. Once the flour is mixed into the batter, stop when it is smooth; mixing for too long can make the crumb denser. I serve it plain, with black tea or coffee. Nectarines and plums can replace the peaches in the same quantity, also cut into small cubes. The batter contains gluten, dairy and eggs. Keep it covered in the fridge for up to 3 days, and let the slices come to room temperature a little before serving.
