How to Make a Simple Peach Cake Recipe

Can I use a different pan?

I love the perfect sides that you get when using a springform pan, but you can use a cast iron skillet for a more rustic look and serve your pie straight from the pan. You could also use a regular 9″ cake pan, just be sure to grease it well and use parchment paper to easily remove it from the pan.

How to Serve Peach Cake

We love the simplicity of this single-layer cake when it’s finished. Decorating it is a breeze, just sift a sprinkle of confectioners’ sugar on top and add some sliced peaches to the center. Voilà. If you want to add a little something extra, I suggest the following:

  • Vanilla ice cream – Just a scoop on the side, it’s so good when it starts to melt into the cake.
  • Whipped cream – A dollop will do ya, right on top, or on the side.
  • Mint leaves – Add a little sprig of mint leaves as a garnish on top for a pop of color on this golden cake.

Make-Ahead

You can make this cake ahead of time and store it at room temperature for up to two days. After cooling, cover with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
