Instructions

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a high sided 9-inch cake pan with cooking spray and line with parchment. If you do not have a high-sided pan, use parchment paper to create taller sides.

Step 2

2. Line the bottom of the pan with concentric circles of the peaches.

Step 3

3. In a medium saucepan, combine ¾ cup of the sugar with 2 tablespoons of water over medium-high heat. Cook, shaking the pan if needed, until an amber caramel forms, about 6 minutes. Immediately pour over the peach slices in an even layer.

Step 4

4. In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, oil, butter, and eggs until smooth. Add the buttermilk and whisk until incorporated, followed by the vanilla and almond extract.

Step 5

5. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder to the bowl and fold until just incorporated, then pour over the caramel-coated peaches.

Step 6

6. Bake until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.

Step 7

7. Let cool 15 minutes, then run a paring knife along the edges of the cake. Place a plate over the cake pan and invert, discarding parchment paper. Let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
