  • Total Time: 2 hours
  • Yield: 12–14 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped (or canned/frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon flour (for coating the peaches)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan thoroughly.
  2. Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl for 4–5 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in vanilla and almond extracts.
  7. Toss chopped peaches with 1 tablespoon of flour, then gently fold into the batter.
  8. Pour batter into prepared bundt pan and bake for 70–80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  9. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack and cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Drizzle with a peach glaze for extra sweetness.
  • Add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts for crunch.
  • Spice it up with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg.
  • Use berries when peaches are out of season.
  • Store at room temp for 3 days or refrigerate up to 1 week.
