Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- 0.25 cup powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan or tube pan, making sure the entire surface is coated to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry flour mixture and sour cream to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Do this in three additions of flour and two of sour cream. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the diced peaches using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with the spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 70-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 9
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack and let it cool completely.
Step 10
Optional: Once the cake has cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for extra sweetness and presentation.
Step 11
Slice and serve. This cake pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
