Ingredients
- Milk
- 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Egg
- 1
- Granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon
- All-purpose flour
- 1 cup
- Raspberries
- 1/2 cup
- Peaches
- 2, sliced
- Brown sugar
- 1/2 cup
- Unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup for the cake batter, 1/4 cup for the cake topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a 9-inch round cake pan, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat.
- Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar over the melted butter, creating a sugary base for your fruit.
- Arrange the peach slices and raspberries artistically on top of the brown sugar and butter mixture.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, setting aside your dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and remaining 1/4 cup of softened butter until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract into your creamed sugar and butter.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to your creamed mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
- Pour your prepared batter gently over the peaches and raspberries in the cake pan.
- Bake your cake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. This will make it easier to invert the cake without it falling apart.
- Place a serving plate upside down on top of the cake pan, then carefully, but swiftly, flip the cake onto the plate.
- Gently lift the cake pan to reveal the stunning peach and raspberry topping.
- Serve your Peach and Raspberry Upside Down Cake warm or at room temperature, and savor every bite!
Tips
- For a variation, try using a mix of different berries or other stone fruits. You can also add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to the cake batter for a warm, spicy note.
