spicy peach cake
I wanted cake and peaches. My husband said no more pudding. I really like the sweet tart of the peaches and the gentle heat of the spices. My friend Marcel and I agree that I need to come up with a peach preserve and brandy/rum sauce to pour over the top.

This spice cake is wonderful! It's an upside-down peach cake full of yummy warm spices. Once baked, the spiced peaches on top become like a peach pie filling. The cake is fluffy, tender, and full of spices. We topped our slice with a little whipped cream. Just the right amount of richness.

How To Make spicy peach cake
Test Kitchen Tips
We recommend placing the springform pan on a sheet pan to avoid any messes. Also, we did have to bake ours 10 minutes longer. We suggest testing with a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, it's done.
-
Step 1Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 9" springform pan.
-
Step 2Place peaches in a bowl. Sprinkle sugar and drizzle honey over the top. Sprinkle the nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves over the top. Stir to coat.
-
Step 3Pour the peach mixture into the pan. Dot with the butter cubes.
-
Step 4In another bowl, mix the cake mix, eggs, water, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg until smooth.
-
Step 5Pour over peaches. Bake on the middle rack for 1 hour.
-
Step 6Let cool for 15 minutes. Then run a small knife around the edges.
-
Step 7Unmold the cake onto a platter peaches side up.
