Categories     dessert

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 cups sugar
4 peaches, cut into 1/2-inch wedges (about 1 1/4 pounds)
2 to 3 tablespoons bourbon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup finely ground pecans
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine 3/4 cup sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet and stir until the mixture looks like wet sand. Cook over medium-high heat, gently swirling the pan occasionally but not stirring, until light amber, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and arrange the peaches in concentric circles over the caramel. Drizzle with the bourbon; set the skillet aside.
  • Whisk the flour, ground pecans, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Beat the butter and the remaining 1 cup sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour, and mix until just incorporated. Pour the batter over the peaches and spread evenly.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. (Cover loosely with foil if the cake is browning too quickly.) Let sit 15 minutes, then invert onto a platter and let cool completely.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 cups sugar
4 peaches, cut into 1/2-inch wedges (about 1 1/4 pounds)
2 to 3 tablespoons bourbon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup finely ground pecans
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Combine 3/4 cup sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet and stir until the mixture looks like wet sand. Cook over medium-high heat, gently swirling the pan occasionally but not stirring, until light amber, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and arrange the peaches in concentric circles over the caramel. Drizzle with the bourbon; set the skillet aside. Whisk the flour, ground pecans, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl.

Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour, and mix until just incorporated. Pour the batter over the peaches and spread evenly. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. (Cover loosely with foil if the cake is browning too quickly.) Let sit 15 minutes, then invert onto a platter and let cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use ripe peaches: For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season peaches. If your peaches are not quite ripe, you can let them sit at room temperature for a few days to ripen.
  • Brown the butter: Browning the butter adds a rich, nutty flavor to the cake. Be sure to watch the butter carefully so that it doesn't burn.
  • Use a cast iron skillet: A cast iron skillet is the best pan for making upside-down cakes because it distributes heat evenly and creates a crispy crust.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the cake cool before inverting it: This will help prevent the cake from breaking. Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.

Conclusion:

This Caramel Peach Upside-Down Cake with Bourbon is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a crispy crust and a gooey caramel topping. The bourbon adds a subtle flavor that complements the peaches perfectly. Serve this cake warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a truly indulgent treat.
