Caramelized Peach Cake
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 5 fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and halved
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, or 190 degrees Celsius, for optimal baking results.
2
Melt one-quarter cup of butter in an eight-inch square baking dish. Sprinkle a generous amount of brown sugar and a pinch of nutmeg evenly over the melted butter.
3
Arrange sliced peaches, cut-side down, in a single layer within the prepared baking dish.
4
Mix together half a cup of butter and half a cup of white sugar in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer until the mixture achieves a light and fluffy consistency. Introduce an egg into the mixture, blending it in until fully incorporated.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture in alternating increments of flour mixture and milk, ensuring each addition is well combined.
6
Spread the cake batter evenly over the peaches in the baking dish, covering them completely.
7
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until it is lightly browned on top.
8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to rest in the pan for five minutes before inverting it onto a serving platter.
