yesterday i made an awful cake
trully dry, overcooked, flat, gritty, pasty disappointment {one reviewer commented it expanded in your mouth…}
the ingredients where amazing! it turned out atrociously and i felt some grievance as to the wastage of goodness
{and the ruination of my cake queen recipe}
today to make amends and lift my energy Lily and I created
Upside Down Autumn Peach-Preme {as in supreme}
The delicious simple spongy layer below caramelised peach heaven will make this a sure Autumn favorite when the late peaches are pink and sweet…
The cake layer is thin so you could easily double the mixture if you have a bigger family/guests
**~~~**
175g unsalted butter soft
1/4 c brown sugar
2 eggs
1c spelt flour
1tspn baking powder
up to 1/4 cup milk
2 large peaches thinly sliced {1cm at thickest end} or enough to cover your baking dish
butter to dab over them
{all measurements are approximations except the eggs!! use your inner cake intuition}
paper line a 20cm square baking dish or equivalent
preheat oven to 160’c
- line the base of your tin with the peach slices prettily and dot with butter
- beat sugar and butter til creamy
- and one egg, mix well, then the other {if ingredients are not binding add a spoonful of flour}
- mix in remaining flour and baking powder
- adjust texture with extra milk if needed
- spread carefully over the peach base with a spatula
- pop in the oven and bless it
- when it smells so good and is browned on top pull it out and let cool in the tin for 10minutes
- place a plate over it and carefully upend your creation
- devour with cream or yoghurt
- mmmm yum yum yum
Yum, I’ve remembering Jessie’s birthday cake you made. It was deliscious. Almond and orange syrup I think. Thank’s for sharing you lovely images. xxx
