Number Of Ingredients 24

For the Coffee Cake
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 c. brown sugar, packed
¾ cup butter, softened
2 eggs, separated
1 cup milk
½ tsp salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
2-1/4 tsp baking powder
Peach Pie Filling
1 can (21 oz.) Peach Pie Filling OR make your own below
1½ cup water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
½ cup granulated sugar (+more to taste)
¼ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3-4 peaches, pitted and chopped (peeling optional)
Keep adding water until you have about 21 ounces of liquid total when done
For the Icing
1½ tablespoons water
¾ cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • For the Peach Pie Filling
  • If you are using pre-made, canned peach pie filling, skip this step and go to making the cake. In a large saucepan, combine water, juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Once it bubbles, cook for another 2 minutes, constantly stirring. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla then the peaches. Cool to room temperature then use right away or store in the refrigerator for 1-3 days.
  • For the Peach Coffee Cake
  • Preheat oven to 350°
  • Mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and butter (will be crumbly). Take out one cup of this and save for topping.
  • Mix egg yolks with cream and add to remainder of flour mixture. Add salt and baking powder and mix until very smooth.
  • Gently fold in egg whites.
  • Pour into greased 9X13 pan or springform pan.
  • Put pie filling evenly over top of batter. Sprinkle with crumb mixture.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes. Until lightly brown on top.
  • Allow to cool for 10 then drizzle with vanilla icing.
  • For the Icing:
  • Combine 1½ tablespoons water and ⅓ cup powdered sugar at time, whisking in between each addition of powered sugar. Drizzle over entire cake.
  • Add 3 tablespoons of cream (or milk) stir until creamy and smooth. Add more cream 1 tablespoon at a time until right consistency (runny enough to drizzle over cake).
