- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- whipped cream for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
- Melt butter and sugar: Melt 1/4 cup butter with the brown sugar in a saucepan until smooth.
- Prepare peach topping: Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the sugar mixture into each muffin cup and arrange peach slices over it.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together.
- Cream butter and sugar: In another bowl, beat remaining 1/4 cup butter with granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Mix in half of the dry ingredients, then add milk, followed by the remaining dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Assemble and bake: Spoon batter over peaches in muffin cups and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Let cool for 5 minutes, then invert cakes onto a baking sheet or platter. Serve warm with whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Best served the day they’re baked.
- For added flavor, sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg into the brown sugar mixture.
