This Brown Sugar Peach Cake is everything you want in a summer dessert—moist, buttery cake loaded with juicy peaches and topped with a crackly brown sugar glaze that’s pure caramel heaven. Whether you’re baking for a crowd or treating yourself, this cake brings golden sunshine to every bite.
For the Cake:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
½ cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
2 cups chopped fresh or canned peaches (drained if using canned)
For the Brown Sugar Glaze:
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup light brown sugar
¼ cup milk or cream
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
½ tsp vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch pan.
Cream together butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add dry mixture to wet in batches, alternating with sour cream. Fold in chopped peaches.
Pour batter into the pan and bake for 35–40 mins, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
While cake cools slightly, make the glaze: melt butter, stir in brown sugar and milk, bring to a boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla.
Pour warm glaze over warm cake. Let it set into a glossy, crackly finish.
