Peach Bundt Cake

I had, for some reason I could not fathom, a bunch of canned peaches. And not peaches I had canned, but the kind from the store. The husband bought them for some unknown reason. I got tired of staring at them so I thought I would bake them into something. Fancy wasn’t in the cards so a peach bundt cake is what happened. I must admit that I do tend towards making bundt cakes – they are easy and tasty. Like the Chocolate Strawberry Bundt Cake I made this summer.

Drain and dice the peaches.
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside
In a stand mixer with the paddle attached, beat the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy – about 3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time. Mix well after each addition.
Mix in the vanilla.
With the mixer on low alternate adding the flour mixture and sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
Remove the bowl from the stand and gently fold in the peaches.

Bake in the preheated oven for 55 – 60 minutes until a tester comes out clean.

Melt the remaining butter
Combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.

Brush the cake with the melted butter and then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar

How Was the Peach Bundt Cake?

This is a very moist, rich cake. There are bits of juicy peach throughout each piece. It might really serve more than 12 because you really don’t need a big piece to be satisfied. I adapted this recipe from Martha Stewart’s Cakes. It was one of those well, I don’t have that but I do have this and what if I used this instead of that kind of recipes. I’m really pleased with how it came out. Now I just have to figure out what to do with the other 8 jars of peaches …
