Ingredients:

​​

• 1 cup butter, softened

• 2 cups sugar

• 4 eggs

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 3 cups all purpose flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 2 cups Mac's Pride peaches, peeled and chopped

​​

​​​​

Directions:

 

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 10 inch tube pan and coat with a little white sugar.

​

2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Stir in vanilla.

​

3. Reserve 1/4 cup of the flour for later, and sift together the remaining flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually stir into the creamed mixture.

​

4. Use the reserved flour to coat the chopped peaches, then fold the floured peaches into the batter. Spread evenly in prepared pan.

​

5. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

​

6. **Optional- while the cake is cooling, puree some peaches (sweetened to desired flavor), add 2 Tbsp of cornstarch and cook over low heat. Serve as a glaze over the cake.
