Peach Cardamom Upside Down Cake
|
|
Summer is going to end soon, and before that I need to make a few recipes with summer peaches. Yes, Texas has best sweet summer peaches. I decide to make this Peach upside down cake. Upside down cakes have been in my do list for a long time, however, I am not comfortable with making caramel worried that it is going to break my teeth.
After serious search I found that there is an easy way to making upside down cake. I adapted few recipes and mixed and made this one. I always like to make cakes with fresh fruits, because their marriage is always fruitful. Yes, fruity top with buttery cake layer. Even though pineapple upside down cake is classic, this peach upside down cake is a good one too.
I like to use fresh fruits, but if you want you can use canned ones. Sweet aroma of summer-fresh peaches, nothing can beat it. Peaches, perhaps more than any other fruit, belong purely to summertime. There’s no out-of-season substitute for a truly glorious peach. Among the stone fruits I like are peaches and mangoes. I have interchanged them both in recipes. I like to spice them up with exotic cardamom. It is regarded as the queen of spices and is one of the most expensive spices, ranking third, the first and second being saffron and vanilla, respectively.
Coming to buttery cake base, trust me it is delicious and moist with Greek yogurt, milk and butter. I used square pan, but if you want you can use round pan which makes your cake looking pretty. If you are like me, think about the convenience of serving, then go for square pan as you can get individual slices with two slices of peach on the top.
This is a great cake you can make ahead, even you refrigerate them it will retain it freshness for a couple of days. Next time when you are going for potluck or get together like me, just make this and take along with you. Your friends and family will love it. If you can get fresh peaches then try it now or use canned one for year around.
