Fresh Peach Cake

Fresh Peach Cake (2 of 2)

My mother-in-law gave me some fresh peaches she picked up at a local farmer’s market and they are just incredible! I didn’t waste any time and set to work to bake something with them right away! I decided on this Fresh Peach Cake and I’m so glad I did! It’s moist & light & has a nice crunch on top from the cinnamon sugar topping. Definitely a great cake to highlight the peaches. I’m sure it would be great with other fruits as well!
