Fresh Peach Cake
2 1/2 cup unbleached flour
3 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups soy milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoon cinnamon
5 large peaches, peeled and neatly sliced
2 tablespoon soy margarine, melted
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a jelly roll pan (15 x 10) with cooking spray. (Can use 13 x 9 pan if a thicker cake is desired.)
Mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add softened margarine, cup of vegan sugar, soy milk, and vanilla. Mix with an electric mixer at low speed. Spread mixture into jelly roll pan.
Mix together the 3/4 cup vegan sugar and the cinnamon. Sprinkle one-half of this mixture over the cake batter in pan. Over this, layer the peach slices in even rows, lengthwise. Then sprinkle with remaining vegan sugar/cinnamon mixture. Drizzle the 2 Tbsp. melted margarine over this.
Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, until the cake peeking through the peaches has turned a golden brown.
SO HOW'D IT GO?
i am so so disappointed by this recipe. i followed everything exactly, except i used sucanat instead of white sugar. after 35 minutes the cake is not even close to being baked. the juice from the peaches (i cut up fresh peaches) has turned the entire thing into a big mush. i don't know if using less liquid for the batter would have helped. but i probably won't be trying this recipe again to find out.
i would just like to add that after the cake cooled, it looked pretty gross but tasted alright. i guess it must have been the sucanat that messed with the recipe.
