  • Cream butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each
  • Mix in sour cream and vanilla

  • Sprinkle half the cinnamon sugar over batter
  • Spoon peach mixture evenly on top
  • Add remaining batter and finish with remaining cinnamon sugar
  • Bake for 75–85 minutes, tenting loosely with foil if browning too quickly
  • Test doneness with a skewer; it should come out mostly clean
  • Cool in pan for 20 minutes, then turn out and cool completely

Notes

Pat peaches slightly dry to control excess moisture
Use room-temperature butter and eggs for best texture
Do not overmix once flour is added
Grease the pan thoroughly to prevent sticking
Let cake cool completely before slicing
Store at room temperature up to 2 days, refrigerate up to 5 days
Freeze tightly wrapped for up to 2 months
