This is my mom's recipe for coffee cake. She uses fresh peaches, which are definitely better, but I like this cake too much to restrict it to the summer. Increase the brown sugar to 1/2 cup if using fresh peaches.
Ingredients
- 1 can sliced peaches , 29 ounce
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 0.5 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 lemons , zested
- 2 eggs , lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 0.5 cups orange juice
Instructions
-
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
-
2
In a saucepan over low heat, mix the peaches, brown sugar, cornstarch, and 3 tablespoons vegetable oil. Cook and stir until sugar is melted and mixture is slightly thickened.

In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and lemon zest. Stir in eggs, vanilla, 1/2 cup oil, and orange juice. Mix until smooth. Pour 1/2 the batter into the prepared pan. Layer with 1/2 the peach mixture, then with remaining batter. Top with remaining peach mixture.

Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
