PEACH UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



Peach Upside-Down Cake image

Upside-down cakes are easy, adaptable and beautiful no matter what kind of fruit you use. This one calls for any kind of summer stone fruit - peaches, apricots, nectarines, plums - whatever looks ripe and juicy. Caramelizing the brown sugar in a skillet before adding the fruit gives it all a particularly deep, complex flavor. Because of the moisture in the topping, you'll need to bake this cake a little longer than other, similar butter cakes. Underbaked cake will be soggy and apt to fall apart, but an ideal result will have a well-browned surface and dark, slightly crunchy edges.

Categories     cakes, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 (10-inch) cake

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons/56 grams unsalted butter
1/3 cup/71 grams light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (see Tip)
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 cups sliced peaches, or use 3 cups sliced nectarines, plums or apricots (about 1 1/4 pounds before pitting)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for greasing the pan
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup/118 milliliters sour cream or plain whole-milk yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups/195 grams all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the topping: In an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, lemon juice and salt, and whisk until the brown sugar melts, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Let cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture starts to smell like caramel and darkens slightly, about 1 minute longer. (Don't walk away or the mixture may burn.) The mixture will clump and separate, but that's OK.
  • Add fruit, gently tossing to coat with the caramel. Remove from the heat and arrange fruit into an even layer on the bottom of the skillet. Ignore any sugar clumps; they will dissolve during baking.
  • Make the cake: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, vanilla and lemon zest until thoroughly combined. Whisk in eggs, one at a time. Add sour cream and whisk until well mixed. Sprinkle in baking powder, salt and baking soda into the batter, one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition.
  • Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in flour until just incorporated. The mixture will be lumpy, but that's OK. Don't overmix. Scrape batter into the skillet over the fruit and spread evenly.
  • Bake until surface is deeply browned all over (with darker brown edges) and the fruit is lightly bubbling around the sides of the skillet, about 35 to 45 minutes, rotating halfway through. A toothpick inserted into cake will come out clean.
  • Once the cake is out of the oven, immediately run a butter knife or offset spatula around the edge of the skillet. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes to cool slightly. Carefully invert cake into serving platter. If some fruit sticks to bottom of skillet, gently remove using offset spatula or knife and place back onto cake. Let cake cool until the fruit topping sets, at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, before serving. Cake is best served on the day it is baked.

Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1/4 cup light brown sugar
2 medium peaches, peeled
1-ounce finely chopped crystallized ginger, approximately 3 tablespoons
2.5 ounces all-purpose flour, approximately 1/2 cup
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

  • Divide 2 tablespoons of the butter between 4 (6-ounce) ramekins. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and set aside. Evenly divide the brown sugar between the ramekins; sprinkling it into the bottoms of the dishes. Cut each peach into 12 to 14 pieces. Lay the peaches on top of the sugar; evenly dividing them between the dishes and sprinkle with the ginger. Set aside.
  • In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl whisk together the sugar, buttermilk, vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir just until combine. Pour the batter over the peaches; dividing the mixture evenly between the dishes. Place on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cake reaches an internal temperature of 190 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Remove from the oven to a rack and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each dish and turn upside down onto a serving plate. Repeat with each cake. Serve immediately with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.

PEACH UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



Peach Upside-Down Cake image

Peaches shine in this 1988 recipe. Ripe slices are coated with caramelized sugar, then a batter enhanced with just a bit of nutmeg. It's ready in 30 minutes, perfect for those warm days when turning on the oven feels impossible. It's best the day it's made, and kept unrefrigerated. One note: Your caramel might harden by the time you spread the batter on top of the peaches. Don't worry. It'll melt by the time it comes out of the oven.

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 pound/114 grams unsalted butter, softened, plus more for greasing the pan
3 large, ripe peaches
1 1/4 cup/250 grams sugar
1 cup/128 grams flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 eggs
3/4 cup crème fraîche

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch cake or pie pan. Line the bottom of the pan with a round of parchment paper and butter that as well.
  • Pit the peaches and cut into slices about 1/2-inch thick. Arrange the slices in a pattern on the bottom of the pie pan.
  • Combine 1/2 cup/100 grams of the sugar with 1/4 cup/60 milliliters of water in a saucepan or skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until the mixture turns amber, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat immediately and pour this caramel evenly over the peaches in the pie pan.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and nutmeg, and set aside.
  • In another medium bowl, beat together the butter and remaining 3/4 cup/150 grams sugar until light. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time. Stir in the flour mixture. Spread the batter evenly over the peaches and caramel.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until top is golden brown and cake is set. Remove from the oven and set on a cooling rack. Run a knife around the sides, place a platter on top and invert the cake onto the platter. If any of the peach slices stick to the pan, lift them off carefully and replace them on top of the cake. Serve the cake warm or cooled to room temperature, with crème fraîche on the side.
