How to Make The Ultimate Peach Cake Recipe

  1. **Topping:**
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup packed brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold, cubed butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Set aside.
  5. **Cake:**
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
  8. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  9. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  10. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  11. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  12. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  13. Arrange sliced peaches over the batter.
  14. Sprinkle the cinnamon crumble topping evenly over the peaches.
  15. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  16. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  17. **Glaze:**
  18. While the cake cools, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a small bowl. Add up to 1 teaspoon more milk, if needed, to reach desired pourable consistency.
  19. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
