A lot of chunks of peaches, creamy and sweet batter are combined in this recipe. To make this cake you don’t need to be familiar with the kitchen at all because the ingredients are combined in a bowl and poured into the baking pan you are good to go.
There is only one thing left, waiting for the cake to be ready and cool down completely.
The name of the cake calls for a creamy inside. That’s why the batter of this cake is rather runny than thick, however, there is no need to worry about it.
After the cake is pulled out from the oven, let it cool completely (at least overnight) to be able to cut slices. During chilling the cake will thicken up into nice and creamy that you will be able to cut too.
THE INGREDIENTS;
- 2/3 cup white sugar (scant 2/3 cup)
- 1 large egg

- 1/3 cup butter (melted)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Can I use frozen peaches in this recipe?
You can use fresh, canned, or frozen peaches as well if they are not in season. If you are using frozen ones be sure to defrost them before mixing them into the batter. This will prevent the cake from being too runny from the water coming out of the peaches during baking.

Wow, easy to make. Very moist custard like. I used fresh peaches. This recipe will be a go to in my book. I did use a spring cake pan & wrapped in foil. Definitely a good recommendation..
Made it and we loved it. Just made it again, doubled the recipe and used a larger spring form pan. taking it to a birthday party . Great recipe and I will make it again using canned peaches when peach season is over.
How long did you bake it for when doubling the recipe? I used a 9” springform pan and it was still jiggly after 65 minutes. I had to cover it with foil after 23 minutes of baking because it was already golden brown.
Absolutely delicious!
But I had to double the recipe.
The 1st time I made it I thought it would rise, no luck .
Great flavor but didn’t raise like the picture. I doubled the recipe also. 2nd times a charm.
So Delicious 🥳I really wanted to take a pic,,but it is already gone. I used half brown sugar and half white sugar Also, heavy cream . As it wasn’t too sweet I made a brown sugar whip cream which is just whipping heavy cream brown sugar and vanilla as I’m sure u know. That took this Amazing cake to the next level. Ty for this wonderful recipe!!
This was one of the most delicious cakes ever…and I know my cakes.
That’s so nice to hear!! 😀
I made this cake and it was so delicious. Will make it again. Question: Can I use Apple’s instead of peaches for the fall. Thank you
Made this cake using the exact measurements & an 8 inch spring cake tin however the cake was very thin less than 1/2 inch in height it was very tasty & moist and went down well at dinner with friends I make a lot of cakes etc and I believe for this tin size you need to double the amounts of ingredients otherwise it’s a delicious cake and I will make again LILY
Yes, same thing happened. Smaller spring form pan or 1.5-2X the ingredients and appropriate cook time adjustment.
My husband is in love with this recipe. He keeps buying large quantities of peaches. Today he told me they were ripe. He wanted me to make this recipe for the third time this month. He enjoys that the dominant taste are the peaches.
Used – large and one small can peaches. Baked 60 mins in a 7.5” springform pan. Came out great! Very tasty.
Cake was amazing. Easy to make, moist. Just delicious.
I do believe that was the best peach dessert I have ever had. And so simple thank you thank you thank you
I plan to make this soon and will serve it with a fresh creme anglaise sauce
The recipe is great. Thanks! The cake turned out so so delicious. I made custard sauce too to go with it. Will definitely be making it again.
So glad you were able to customize it to your liking!
Can we use heavy cream instead of milk?
Heavy cream of any percentage of fat, half and half, concentrated milk – everything can be used! The taste and texture of the cake may vary, but the result should be excellent.
Curious if you need the height of the spring form pan Or will it work fine in a regular 8 or 9″ cake pan? Looks like it gets pretty tall. Thanks in advance
Yes, an 8 “or 9” cake pan will work fine. I prefer to use springform just to get off the cake easily.
I haven’t made this yet but will probably do so this weekend. My question is, if using canned peaches, do you drain them first??
Yes, put all the peaches in a colander to remove excess liquid, otherwise, the dough will turn out to be too runny and will not bake well.
What size cake pan? Because I wanted to make a 10inch pan.
Use 8 or 9-inch,
If using canned peaches, what size can? Looks delish!
I think two 15-ounce cans will be fine.
Easy and Deeelicious! Made mine with canned peaches that I rinsed off with water and dried them before adding them.
So glad you were able to customize it to your liking! Thanks so much for the 5-star rating!
I used a 9” round pan and followed directions. This came out as mostly peaches with very little “cake.” It was more like a bland clafoutis. So bummed after all the rave reviews.
I can’t wait to make this lovely cake!
I do have a question about step #4 in your instructions. It says to pour the milk into the mixture, and to then add the peaches. Do you mix up the batter by folding in the peaches or are they meant to just float around on the top?
I’ll wait for your answer before I make this cake. I don’t want to mess it up!
Thank you for helping me with this!
🌸💜🌸
Thanks, Beth
After adding milk, I stir the dough until smooth. Then I add the peach chunks, mix with the dough and pour everything into a baking dish.
This recipe sounds delicious!!! One question, have you ever tried using heavy cream instead of milk? I think since it is called peaches and “cream” maybe using cream would take it to the next level. I can’t wait to make it!
Yes, you can use heavy cream of any percentage of fat, half and half, concentrated milk – everything can be used!
The taste and texture of the cake may vary, but the result should be excellent.
This looks delicious, and I’d love to make it, but first I have some questions.
The directions seem to say that you grease the pan, coat it with brown sugar, and then cover the bottom with parchment paper. Is that right?
Also, the directions say “cake pan” but your picture looks like a springform pan. Which is correct?
Finally, what is the purpose of covering the pan with aluminum foil?
Thanks!
Hi Robin, That’s right, here I use a springform pan, but I constantly cook cakes in it, so I call it cake pan))) This baking dish is detachable, so I line the bottom with a sheet of parchment, then fasten it into a ring. I grease the side walls with butter and sprinkle with sugar, so I can easily remove the ring from the pie after baking. With a sheet of foil, I wrap the bottom of the springform pan on the outside so that the batter does not flow into the oven (at the junction of the bottom of the form with the rim).
Hi there!! I’ve just made the cake and can’t wait to try it tomorrow. I do have a question though regarding the pan size. I used my 8” springform pan and the batter only comes up to half way of the pan. Just wondering if you’re using the 6” deep springform pan?
Betty, same thing happened to me. But it was delicious!!! That’s why I actually came to look at the comments, to see if I’m the only one.
