Peaches and Tea Cakes, what better way to impress your guests when they come over for tea or coffee with some homemade Peach Tea Cakes!!
We are in the peak of summer and this is the best time for stone fruits such as peaches and nectarines! If you haven’t noticed yet at the grocery store, there are peaches and nectarines of all kinds everywhere! From white & yellow peaches to saturn peaches, just thinking about it makes my mouth water!
Recently I stopped by at a bakery and picked up some of their delicious tea cakes. They had blue and raspberry tea cakes but no peaches! So, of course I had to come home and make some! This recipe is so simple to make and you will be blown away at how moist this cake is! It is my favorite cake recipe!
Enjoy!
