Homemade Bourbon Peach Upside-Down Cake

Today, I’m excited to share a delightful and unique dessert perfect for summer gatherings or cozy fall evenings: Homemade Bourbon Peach Upside-Down Cake. This decadent treat combines the sweetness of ripe peaches with the warm, rich flavor of bourbon, creating a mouthwatering dessert that will impress your family and friends.

To start, gather these ingredients:

  • 4 ripe peaches (sliced)
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup milk

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • 9-inch round cake pan
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • wooden spoon
  • knife
  • measuring cups and spoons

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and preparing your cake pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a small bowl, mix the sliced peaches with bourbon and set aside to soak up the flavors. In another bowl, combine brown sugar and melted butter, then spread this mixture evenly on the bottom of the cake pan.

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream together sugar and vanilla extract, then beat in the egg. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until a smooth batter forms.

Arrange the bourbon-soaked peaches on top of the brown sugar layer in the cake pan. Carefully pour the cake batter over the peaches, spreading it gently to cover them completely. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving platter. The warm, gooey peach topping will cascade down the sides of the cake, creating a beautiful presentation.

The approximate total weight of the cooked Bourbon Peach Upside-Down Cake is 1200 grams, with 8 servings at 150 grams each. One serving is approximately 350 calories.

A unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the peaches before adding the cake batter. The hint of spice will enhance the flavors and add a cozy aroma to the dessert.

I hope you enjoy making and sharing this Homemade Bourbon Peach Upside-Down Cake with your loved ones. Feel free to experiment with different fruits or spirits to customize this recipe to your preferences. Happy baking!
