A friend of mine invited my husband and I to lunch at her house. She didn't want me to bring anything but because I had fresh peaches I decided to make this cake. Is absolutely delicious and so easy to make.There wasn't a crumb left. Thanks for this wonderful and easy recipe.

I made this recipe with the last 4 peaches off the tree for the season. Had peach pie, peach cobbler already and was looking for something different. This takes the "cake". A delicious use of peaches. I was wondering if other fruit could be substituted and if yes would you still use the brown sugar or or something else? Examples, cherries or apples.

This was very good! I had to use canned peaches because that is all I had on hand. I will definitely be making this again.

This cake is very delicious , I used 1/2 cup of cashew milk in place of regular milk to give it a little nut flavor. My family loves this cake.

I had a craving for something with almond flavoring and a stack of peaches to use up, so I made this recipe but substituted the vanilla with almond extract at a 1 for 1 ratio. It was DELICIOUS! So easy! Thanks!
