The peaches and almonds give this cake an incredible flavor. It is made with two different kinds of flour; it is super spongy and really delicious!
I love to make this type of cake to make use of the season’s amazing fruit! Whenever I make it, no one can get enough of it! This time I used peaches, but plums and apricots work perfectly as well.
There is no need to peel the fruit, so it is very quick to make, all you need to do is mix all the ingredients together, pour the bather into a pan, top it with peach wedges, pop it into the oven, and then sprinkle the top with sugar and bits of butter. This gives the cake an amazing sweet, crunchy top layer! Then 15 more minutes in the oven, and it is done!
