I’ve never been able to replicate her peach jam, so I have to stick with things like this Peach Cobbler Loaf Cake to get my peach fix.
This cake is a tender, soft vanilla cake that has pieces of fresh peach throughout. It’s topped with a sweet, brown sugar crumble topping and a drizzle of icing. This Peach Cobbler Loaf Cake would be equally at home for breakfast (coffee cake!) or for dessert. No matter when you enjoy it, this cake is a great way to enjoy a little bit of summery goodness!
