Peach Swirl Cake | Can't Stay Out of the Kitchen

Peach Swirl Cake

Teresa Ambra

Peach Swirl Cake is awesome. Okay, you all know I love cake–actually I have a huge sweet tooth, but peaches and cake (uh, make that peaches with ANYTHING), are absolutely delectable in my opinion. Peach Swirl Cake takes the best of a regular white cake, swirls some orange juice in the batter to provide zing, then swirls two layers of peaches, sugar and cinnamon between three layers of cake. Then it’s topped with a light powdered sugar glaze. Perfection. With a capital “P.” 🙂

I was combing through recipes in July trying to come up with ways to use up all of our peaches from six peach trees. I made almost ten different bundt cakes using recipes I usually made with apples. Last year, I concentrated on cobblers, pies, cookies and bars. This year I made mostly cakes, muffins and some cookies. I was handing out Peach Bundt Cakes like they were going out of style. We had a lot of friends come by to help us with our moving process, so many of them got muffins or a cake, to go! This particular cake has wonderful flavors and texture and always comes out of the pan really well.

A couple of notes for those of you not used to using Bundt pans: 1) Always thoroughly grease and flour the pan. 2) The cake is not baked until a knife inserted all the way down to the bottom of the pan comes out clean. A toothpick won’t reach far enough. Use a knife. Keep baking even if your oven takes two hours if the knife comes out soupy or gooey. 3) The bundt pan should have at least one to two inches at the top for the cake to expand while baking. If the cake mixture comes to the very top, you may have issues with it spilling out over the sides. 4) Allow the cake to cool completely before inverting onto a plate and adding glaze. 5) I use a special rubber spatula around the edges and cone of the Bundt pan so the cake comes out easily.

If you want a delicious cake to serve your family or friends, Peach Swirl Cake should be on the menu. This recipe is also good with apples or pears. Oh, and by all means, serve it ala mode. 🙂
