Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or springform pan.
Make the batter
In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time, then vanilla.
Mix in dry ingredients alternately with milk/sour cream until smooth.
Assemble
Spread batter evenly into pan.
Arrange peach slices in a circular pattern on top.
Sprinkle with sugar (and cinnamon if using).
Bake
Bake 35–40 minutes or until golden and toothpick comes out clean.
Cool slightly before serving.
🍴 Serving Ideas:
Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
For a café-style upgrade: brush peaches with warmed apricot jam for a glossy finish. ✨
👉 Would you like me to also give you a Hungarian-style version (Őszibarackos pite) that uses a shortcrust base and custard filling with peaches? That one tastes like it came straight from a Budapest pastry shop. 🇭🇺
