Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

  8. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
  9. Pour the batter over the peaches in the cake pan, spreading it evenly.
  10. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert it onto a serving plate. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
