Ingredients

• 3 large Fresh peaches
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Low-fat buttermilk
• 2 whole Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan, or line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and thinly slice them. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and applesauce. Whisk together until smooth.

Step 5

Add the eggs to the sugar and applesauce mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the low-fat buttermilk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Step 7

Gently fold in the sliced peaches, being careful not to overmix to keep the cake tender.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Bake the peach cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
