Recipe : Peach cake

Peach cake
This little gem is so easy and yummy. Serve it cold as a slice, or warm with custard (and ice cream please).

Here's the recipe. Like I said - so easy.


Simple Peachy Cake
4 eggs
330g (1 1/4 cups) caster sugar
250g unsalted butter (softened)
1Tbsp vanilla extract/essence
300g (2 cups) self raising flour
 400g tin peach slices

Preheat oven to 180 degrees.

Line a large rectangle baking tin or lamington tin. 

Beat the eggs and sugar together until creamy. Add vanilla and butter. Beat until mixed and thickened.

Add in the sifted flour and fold this into the batter. Spread batter over lined tray.

Add peach slices to the top (no need to push down as they will sink).

Bake for 45 minutes.

Let cool a little and enjoy.

Yummy with custard! 

And of course easy to add variations - apples, cherries, pears, apricots. Give it a go!
