Time 1h20m

Yield one 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 medium peaches or nectarines, pitted and cut into 6 wedges each
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole almonds
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 cup whole milk
Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 9-inch-round cake pan. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 3/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon water and cook, stirring occasionally, until smooth and deep golden brown, 8 to 11 minutes. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and tilt to coat the bottom. Arrange the peach wedges snugly in the bottom of the pan in a single layer, cutting to fit if needed.
  • Combine the flour, almonds, baking powder and salt in a food processor and pulse until the almonds are finely ground.
  • Beat the remaining 7 tablespoons butter and 3/4 cup sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and almond extracts. Beat in the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the milk and beginning and ending with the flour mixture; beat in each addition until just incorporated.
  • Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 30 minutes. Invert onto a plate and let cool completely. Serve with ice cream.

PEACH-ALMOND UPSIDE DOWN CAKE

Categories     Cake     Peach

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Topping:
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 cups sliced peaches
Cake:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter
One 7-ounce tube almond paste
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 1. To make the topping, heat the butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat until the butter is melted. Pour the butter into a 9 x 2-inch round cake pan, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the butter. Arrange the peaches, overlapping slightly, over the sugar mixture. 2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and almond paste until well mixed. Add the granulated sugar and beat until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and almond extract until blended. With the mixer on low speed, beat in the flour mixture in thirds alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. 3. Spoon the batter over the peach mixture, spreading evenly. 4. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 1 hour. Cover loosely with a tent of foil during the last 15 minutes of baking time to prevent overbrowning. Transfer to a rack and cool 5 minutes. Run a small knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cake from the pan. Carefully invert onto a serving plate. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds. Serve warm or at room temperature. Tip: Be sure to use almond paste and not marzipan, which has more sugar and less almonds than almond paste.
