PEACH BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• With a hand mixer on high speed or stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar for about 5 minutes, until the mixture is light and fluffy. It should look like whipped cream in texture and color. As you're beating, scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to make sure all of the butter is incorporated.
• Add the eggs one at a time while continuing to beat on high (see Cook's Note). Add the vanilla and beat the mixture on high speed for another 4 to 5 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as you beat.
• In a medium bowl, toss the peaches with 1/4 cup of the flour, coating the fruit. Add the peach-and-flour mixture to your mixing bowl and beat on high until the peaches are incorporated.
• In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 2 3/4 cups flour with the salt and baking powder.
• Turn the hand mixer down to a low speed. Add about half of the dry ingredients, taking care to scrape the sides of the bowl to make sure all of the ingredients are well blended. Add the buttermilk and continue to mix. Finish by adding the rest of the dry ingredients and incorporating it into the batter.
• Spray a nonstick Bundt pan with nonstick vegetable oil spray. Pour in the cake batter and bake for 50 to 55 minutes. A toothpick or knife inserted into the cake center should come out dry. If it's wet, let the cake bake a few more minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and let the cake cool for 15 minutes. Flip it onto a plate to serve.

PEACH CORDIAL MINI-BUNDT CAKES

Steps:

• Butter and flour six 1-cup fluted individual tube pans or eight 3 1/4-inch muffin cups. Set aside. In a 1-cup glass measuring cup combine peach nectar and rum; set aside. 2. In a large mixing bowl beat 1/2 cup of the softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed for 30 seconds. Add 1 cup of the granulated sugar; beat 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Beat in the almond extract and the vanilla. Sift the flour, baking powder, kosher salt and baking soda into the batter. Beat just until combined. Add 1/2 cup of the rum mixture and the boiling water. Stir by hand until the liquids are incorporated. Divide batter evenly among the prepared pans. 3. Bake in a 350 degrees F oven for 20 to 25 minutes for the fluted individual tube pans or 18 to 20 minutes for the 3 1/4-inch muffin cups or until a toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean. 4. Meanwhile, for syrup, in a small saucepan combine 1/4 cup of the remaining rum mixture with the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and the remaining 1/4 cup softened butter. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves and mixture just come to a simmer. Remove from heat. 5. Place cakes in pans on a wire rack. Using a toothpick, poke about a dozen holes in each cake. Slowly and evenly spoon syrup over cakes. Cool in pans about 1 hour or until cakes absorb syrup. Unmold cakes. 6. For glaze, in a medium mixing bowl combine the remaining 1/4 cup peach mixture, the powdered sugar, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Stir briskly to combine. Drizzle over cakes.

PEACH/ALMOND BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Mix cake mix, eggs, oil and almond flavoring until smooth. It will be fairly stiff. I found chopping the peaches in the pie filling in half works best. Gently fold pie filling into cake mixture until all is blended. Try not to break the peaches up anymore than necessary. Pour into well greased bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees until cake tests done.
• Let cool completely in pan before removing from pan.
• Make glaze to desired consistency and pour over cooled cake.
• Glaze and serve. Looks lovely with fresh peach slices as a garnish.
• (You can do the same with a chocolate cake and cherry pie filling, omitting almond flavoring).

PEACH CORDIAL

Steps:

• In a gallon glass mayonnaise jar, or other type of crock that can be sealed completely, mix all the ingredients and seal with electrical or duct tape so no aid can get in or liquid can evaporate. Shake gently twice a day until the sugar is dissolved (generally takes 2-3 days) then about every other day so that the mixture is evenly flavored. Now the hard part -- Let sit, for 2 months. Then strain through 4 layers of cheesecloth in a colander. After sediment has settled, siphon off the clear cordial mixture and decant. This is really smooth and friends are still asking if I have the recipe. I hope that you enjoy it.
