Description
A decadent mash-up of peach cobbler and buttery pound cake—layered with juicy peaches and cinnamon swirl, then topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate dessert indulgence.
Ingredients
2 large (or 3 medium) peaches, peeled and sliced
2 Tbsp salted butter, melted
¼ cup dark brown sugar (50 g), lightly packed
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ cup dark brown sugar (50 g) for swirl
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour (15 g) for swirl
½ tsp ground cinnamon for swirl
2 cups all-purpose flour (240 g)
1¼ cups granulated sugar (250 g)
1 Tbsp baking powder (10 g)
½ tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter (227 g), room temperature
4 large eggs, room temperature
¾ cup Greek yogurt (170 g)
2 tsp vanilla extract
3–4 scoops vanilla ice cream (for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F (177 °C convection) or 325 °F (163 °C conventional). Grease and line an 8″ round, 3″ tall cake pan.
- In a bowl, toss peach slices with melted butter, ¼ cup brown sugar, and ¼ tsp cinnamon. Spread mixture in pan bottom.
- Mix swirl: whisk ¼ cup brown sugar, flour, and ½ tsp cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.
- In a mixer, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat in butter until pea-sized clumps form, then smooth.
- Add eggs one at a time, scraping bowl between. Beat in Greek yogurt and vanilla until just combined.
- Layer half the batter over peaches, sprinkle swirl mixture, then top with remaining batter, smoothing surface.
- Bake 55–60 minutes until top springs back and a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto serving plate.
- Serve warm or cooled, topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Substitute gluten-free 1:1 flour for a GF version.
- Use vegan butter, yogurt, and dairy-free ice cream for a dairy-free option.
- Add ½ tsp nutmeg or ground ginger to the batter for warm spice.
- Substitute apples or pears for peaches as a seasonal twist.
- If the top browns early, tent with foil halfway through baking.
