It is called coffee cake because it is often enjoyed for a

Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even holiday mornings.

Why You Need To Try This Recipe

1. Moist Cake: Sour cream, milk, and brown sugar make the cake turn out moist and fluffy every time.
2. Great Flavor: Warm cinnamon and juicy peaches will tantalize your taste buds.
3. Mile high crumb topping: Crumbs are the best part of coffee cake, and you’ll get some in every bite.
4. No mixer required: Mix up this easy recipe with just a wooden spoon.

Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

1. Fresh Peaches: I used fresh peaches in this recipe. Choosing a good peach doesn’t have to be hard! Make certain to sniff it and see if you can notice a sweet smell coming from the peach. If you do, this is a good sign that it’s ripe. Also, your peach should have a little firmness to it and a little squishiness. You don’t want it to be too hard to too soft.
2. You can also use canned (drained), or even thawed frozen peaches.
3. Milk and Sour Cream: For the best results use full-fat sour cream and whole milk.
4. Butter: Use softened, unsalted butter for both the cake batter and the crumb topping.
5. Variations: If you don’t like peaches you could use apples, blueberries, or even pumpkin. A sprinkle of walnuts, or pecans would also be wonderful.

How To Make Peach Coffee Cake

1. Prep work: Preheat oven and grease pan.
2. Cake batter: Combine all ingredients except flour and peaches. Add flour a little at a time, and then fold in peaches.
3. Crumb Topping: Combine all ingredients using 2 forks. Sprinkle over cake batter
4. Bake: Bake for 55-60 minutes.
5. Glaze: Combine all ingredients, and drizzle over cake.

Tips and Tricks

1. The batter will be thicker than your typical cake batter. Pour into your prepared pan using a rubber spatula to get every last bit of batter.
2. Storage: Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
3. To Reheat: Microwave for 20-30 seconds.
4. Freeze: Freeze in an air-tight container or a freezer bag for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it again thaw overnight in the fridge. You can also freeze individual slices for whenever the craving hits.
