Ingredients

Scale

Topping:

  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (cold)
  • 6 teaspoons light brown sugar
  • 3 fresh peaches

Cake Batter:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
  • 1 large egg (at room temperature)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup buttermilk (at room temperature)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and spray a muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. To prepare the topping: Cut cold butter into 12 parts and place in muffin cups. Sprinkle brown sugar into each cup. Slice peaches and arrange in the muffin pan.
  3. To make the cake batter: Cube remaining peaches. Whisk dry ingredients in a bowl. Beat butter and sugar until fluffy, then add egg and vanilla. Alternate adding flour mixture and buttermilk, then fold in cubed peaches.
  4. Bake: Divide batter into muffin cups and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  5. Cool and serve: Cool for 5 minutes, then invert the pan to release the cakes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • Cold butter is easier to cut for the topping.
  • Room temperature ingredients ensure a smoother batter.
  • A large cookie scoop makes dividing the batter easy.
