Description

A delicious and moist Peach Cream Cheese Cake that combines the flavors of fresh peaches and creamy cheese for a delightful dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced (or canned peaches, drained)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add in the granulated sugar, beating well until combined and creamy.
  5. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and almond extract if using.
  6. Gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  7. Fold in the diced peaches and sprinkle in the ground cinnamon and nutmeg if desired.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and tap gently on the counter to release air bubbles.
  9. Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use fresh peaches when in season.
  • Cover the cake loosely with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
