Last month I was seriously sad when I had to sit out for #BundtAMonth.  I don’t know what happened!   I was ready to make a delicious caramel Bundt and the next thing I knew it was posting day and I had nothing.  Funny how that seems to happen to me more in the summer then any other time of year.  It may be because I’m working this summer so I don’t have as much time as I normally do or it could just be that it’s hot and I don’t feel like baking as much as I usually do.

In any case I was determined to get this month’s Bundt done way ahead of schedule.  I had a meeting at school and I wanted to take something it to share with the staff for breakfast.  The theme for this month is peaches.  Juicy, luscious peaches make wonderful cakes and baked goods.  I couldn’t wait to get started.

I went with a Peaches and Cream Bundt cake, heavy on the brown sugar which almost gave it a caramel flavor.  There are a lot of eggs and sour cream in this dish which make is a rich cake but the 9 Grain Flour and peaches really work to balance out what would otherwise be a heavy cake.  The original recipe called for the peaches to be peeled but I happen to like the skin of peaches and think they add a lovely color.

The cake turned out awesome.  It wasn’t too heavy, the peaches kept the cake moist, the brown sugar gave it a great flavor, and overall it was a wonderful snack cake or even a breakfast cake.  I served it at work and most people had 2 or 3 slices.  My husband and I certainly did!  I didn’t end up putting any whipped cream or glaze on top because it was already sweet enough.  I simply mixed a little powdered sugar and cinnamon and sprinkled it over the top.  Beautiful and tasty too!

  1. Your peachy themed cake sounds delicious. Love the addition of the icing sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top.

  2. Love the 9 grain flour and I especially love that you also weren’t afraid to overload your cake with fruit! 3 cups yes please! Pinning!

  3. I peeled the peaches for mine but I agree with you about the beautiful colors of the skins. Normally, for pie or tart, I leave them on. What a gorgeous Bundt, Heather! I can see why folks had more than one slice. This combination, with the cinnamon-sugar on top would be hard to resist.
