Method
Cake Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 10-inch bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. (Ensure there is at least 1.5 inches between the height of the batter and the top edge of the pan.)
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the unsalted butter until smooth.
- Gradually add the granulated sugar and mix until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, kosher salt, and baking soda.
- On low speed, beat in the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
- Add the diced peaches and gently fold them into the batter by hand with a spatula.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, filling it about ¾ of the way full. Bake for 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, but no wet batter. Do not underbake.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Glaze Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon of milk (or cream). Whisk until smooth, adding more milk gradually until the glaze reaches your desired consistency.
- Pour the glaze over the completely cooled cake and serve.
Notes
This Peach Pound Cake is perfect for summer gatherings or any time you crave a rich, fruity dessert. Fresh peaches are highly recommended for the best flavor and texture.
