The base is a butter cake topped with sliced peaches and toasted cashew nuts before baking. I have used canned peaches and did not toss them with lemon juice and nutmeg powder as stated in the recipe. And I have reduced the sugar to half. Cashew nut is an interesting ingredient which I seldom find in baking recipes.
This cake can be baked in a tart pan or a springform pan, and I have used a 9-1/2 inch springform pan. Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown and cooked.
A very nice cake, the texture of the cake is soft and tender, buttery and very moist, with the sliced peaches and the cashew nuts, makes this a perfect coffee cake.

Hi, Joyce! May I try one piece of the cake?
ReplyDeleteSo funny, Joyce : yesterday I was thinking I should make a peach cake :)
ReplyDeleteThis one looks perfect. This is a very good idea to use canned peach. They are good and it prevents to "waste" fresh preaches if our cake is, finally, not too good :)
Joyce, This cake must be very fragrant, i like peach with any combination and hope to have a piece to try!
ReplyDeletecashew still taste crunchy? i used it to bake cake before and it turns out very soggy.
ReplyDeleteHi Thea,
DeleteThe cashew nuts are first toasted and then used in the recipe. It is not really crispy but definitely not soggy. You can replace with almonds or pistachios.
Just cant take my eyes from ur pictures, beautiful cake.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious and yeah, first time seeing cashews added to cakes.

I am glad you liked the cake. We did too. I am a peach fan which is why I chose this one. Thanks for baking with me and for making such a great group.
ReplyDeletepeaches and cashews? How could you EVER go wrong with that combination. I love that you used it in cake form as most would do it as a crumble or something! This is great

ReplyDeleteI loved this cake... its very delicious, will be posting mine next week :)
ReplyDeleteNeither have I try any baks with cashew nuts. I just bought some cashew nuts may be I shall try this out. Looks good.
ReplyDeleteJoyce, this looks like a yummy cake as I love peaches! But not really keen on the cashew though I love roasted cashew nuts.
ReplyDeleteI like that you did not chop up the cashews for your cake, lovely colors!
