Peach Upside Down Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze 🍑

📝 Ingredients:

For the topping:

  • 3–4 ripe yellow peaches, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp cinnamon

For the cake:

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

🍰 Instructions:

  1. Prepare the pan: Line the bottom of a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment. Melt butter and brown sugar together, stir in cinnamon, and pour into the pan. Arrange peach slices tightly in a spiral pattern over the glaze.
  2. Make the batter: Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in sour cream and vanilla. Whisk dry ingredients separately, then fold into the wet mixture.
  3. Bake: Gently spread batter over peaches. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40–45 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Flip & glaze: Cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a plate. Drizzle with extra brown sugar glaze if desired for that sticky, caramel finish.
