Instructions

Set the oven temperature to 350℉ before using.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the butter and 1 cup of sugar. Use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and fluffy.

Put the mixer on low speed and incorporate the eggs individually.

Combine sour cream and vanilla, and stir until the mixture is creamy and smooth.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.

Using the lowest setting on the mixer, gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir until they are just blended together.

Mix the nutmeg or cinnamon with the remaining ½ cup sugar in a small bowl.

Place half of the batter evenly on the bottom of a 9×9 inch pan. Layer half of the peaches on top, and then sprinkle ⅔ of the sugar mixture over them.

Evenly distribute the remaining batter over the top, then layer on the remaining peaches and generously sprinkle with the remaining sugar mix.

Cook for around 55 to 65 minutes or until the center is firm and doesn't wobble, or when a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Peak Peach Selection 🍑
Choose peaches that yield slightly to gentle pressure and smell fragrant—avoid hard or mushy ones. If peaches aren't peak season, use frozen or canned peaches (drained well) to maintain consistent moisture and sweetness.
Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️
Bring eggs, sour cream, and butter to room temperature before mixing to ensure smooth, lump-free batter that incorporates evenly throughout the cake.
Strategic Peach Placement 🎯
Pat peach slices dry before adding and toss them lightly in flour—this prevents them from sinking to the bottom and distributes them evenly throughout the cake layers.
Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄
Mix dry ingredients separately and fold them gently into wet ingredients just until combined; overmixing develops gluten and creates a tough, dense cake instead of the tender crumb you want.
Test for Doneness Carefully ⏱️
Use a toothpick inserted near (but not through) the peaches—it should come out with moist crumbs, not wet batter, since peaches release moisture as they bake.
