Imagine the buttery richness of a classic pound cake paired with the juicy, spiced sweetness of peach cobbler. The result? A dessert that feels like two favorites in one: comforting, indulgent, and impossible to resist. This Peach Cobbler Pound Cake has become an instant hit at family gatherings, brunches, and dessert tables everywhere. Every bite delivers soft, moist cake with pockets of tender peaches and a hint of cinnamon-sugar crunch.
🥄 Ingredients
(Serves 8–10)
For the Cake:
-
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
-
2 cups granulated sugar
-
4 large eggs
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
3 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp baking soda
-
½ tsp salt
-
1 cup sour cream
-
1 ½ cups peeled and sliced fresh peaches (or canned, drained)
For the Topping:
-
2 tbsp granulated sugar
-
1 tsp ground cinnamon
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prep the Oven and Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or a Bundt pan.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar
In a large bowl, beat softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with sour cream, starting and ending with flour.
4. Fold in Peaches
Gently fold in the sliced peaches, taking care not to break them too much.
5. Pour and Top
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly over the top of the batter.
6. Bake
Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Serve and Enjoy
Slice and serve on its own, or pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
