Yummy Peach Cake

I have adapted this recipe from Maria's Cherry Cake and modified it with Peach as I am not a lover of cherry. I have used self-raising flour in replaced with all purpose flour and baking powder. Also reduced sugar further to 110g and the sweetness is just perfect. The look resembled the Fruit Pastry Cake but this cake is much softer and lighter. Overall, fruity and yummy! 

Ingredients

100g butter
110g icing sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
150g self-raising flour (sifted)
Sliced syrup peaches
icing sugar for dusting

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 170C. Prepare a 9 inch pan and grease with butter.
2. Cream butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in eggs gradually.
4. Add in vanilla extract.
5. Fold flour into beaten butter.
6. Spread out mixture into prepared pan and arrange sliced peaches.
7. Bake for 35 mins or until golden. When cake has cooled, dust with icing sugar before serving.

Note: If you are using smaller baking pan, do remember to fill the batter up to 1/2 the pan, so it will rise just nice to the rim.
