Step-by-Step Instructions for Fresh Peach Cake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients with the buttermilk, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
  6. Wash and chop the peaches, then toss with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent sinking.
  7. Gently fold the floured peaches into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter into the greased pan and smooth the top.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
