Published 7/24/2023 We’ve all heard of the classic pineapple upside down cake, but have you tried peach upside down cake?! The warm flavor of fresh peaches is elevated by a brown sugar coating to create delicious caramelized peaches. Topped with a light and fluffy cake (thanks to the Greek Yogurt), this delicious dessert is sure to be a hit at your next gathering!
Featured Ingredients
Peach: All you need is one peach to make this recipe. Canned peaches also taste good, but we prefer fresh. Light brown sugar: brown sugar is used to caramelize the peaches so they are buttery and sweet. Unsalted butter: you’ll need both unsoftened and softened butter for this recipe. Honey: honey is another important ingredient for caramelizing the peaches. Almond extract: we love how the almonds taste with the peaches! SO good. Greek yogurt: use full-fat Greek yogurt to get the richest flavor and creamiest texture. Milk: whole milk is best for this recipe, but low-fat or almond milk can also be used. Almonds: we love how this cake tastes with almonds, but feel to replace the sliced almonds with any type of nut.
Top Tips for Upside Down Peach Cake
If the peach slices feel firm, allow them to rest in the brown sugar a bit longer. You want to make sure that the peaches are nice and soft before you pour the caramel over them. Be sure not to over-mix the cake batter. If you do, you’ll end up with a stodgy cake… and no one wants that! Note that the baking time of your cake may vary. This will ultimately depend on the oven and what altitude your house is at.
How do you get an upside down cake out of the pan?
Flipping an upside down cake can be risky business, but not when you’ve got the right technique. Here’s what to do: And there you have it — a perfectly flipped upside down cake!
Storage
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. We recommend placing it in a cake keeper for easy storage.
