Cake Ingredients:
Dry Ingredients:
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon fine sea salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup neutral oil (like sunflower)
- 0.75 cup vegan yogurt
- 0.5 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon orange blossom water
- 2 teaspoons dark rum
Topping Ingredients:
- 1–2 large peaches, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Demerara sugar
- 0.25 cup peach or apricot jam
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly greasing the sides, dusting with flour, and lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the liquid ingredients, whisking together oil, orange blossom water, rum, salt, sugar, yogurt, and milk until thoroughly blended.
- Sift the dry ingredients, including flour and leavening agents, into the wet mixture, gently folding and stirring until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared springform pan, arranging fresh peach slices decoratively across the top surface and generously sprinkling Demerara sugar for a crisp, caramelized finish.
- Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes, monitoring until the top turns a rich golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes, then carefully release the springform pan’s sides and gently brush the surface with a thin layer of jam to enhance moisture and shine.
Notes
- Swap orange blossom water with vanilla extract if unavailable, maintaining the delicate floral essence without compromising flavor.
- Use gluten-free flour blend for a celiac-friendly version, ensuring the cake’s tender crumb remains consistent.
- Opt for fresh or frozen peaches depending on seasonal availability, allowing flexibility in fruit selection.
- Brush with apricot jam for added shine and subtle sweetness, creating a professional bakery-style finish.
