Cake Batter
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups diced peaches (fresh, canned, or thawed frozen)
Cinnamon Streusel Topping
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
Optional Glaze
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat and Prep: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour an 8×8 or 9×9-inch square baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Make the Streusel Topping: In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add in the cold butter cubes and work them into coarse crumbs. Set in the fridge.
- Whisk the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars: Beat softened butter with sugars until fluffy.
- Add Eggs, Vanilla, and Sour Cream: Beat in eggs, vanilla, and sour cream.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Mix dry ingredients into wet until just combined.
- Fold in the Peaches: Gently fold in diced peaches.
- Layer and Top: Spread batter in pan, top with streusel.
- Bake the Cake: Bake for 40–50 minutes.
- Cool and Glaze (Optional): Let cool before glazing if desired.
Notes
- If using canned peaches, drain and pat dry to avoid excess moisture in the cake.
