Peach Coffee Cake

Peach Coffee Cake is always welcome any day of the week!  This mouth-watering coffee cake is jam packed with fresh, juicy peaches, cinnamon streusel and a creamy vanilla glaze on top!  Perfect with your morning coffee with breakfast or when you are craving something peachy!

We got some peaches last week and they were calling for me to make something home-baked and delish!  So here we are!  Peach Coffee Cake is perfect for summer when peaches are in are at the peak of the season.

Of course, we wouldn't turn this down anytime, any season, because it tastes so amazing!  And, if you're a peach lover, this should definitely be on your baking list of peach cake recipes!

What I love most about this peach inspired breakfast dessert, is the cinnamon flavor in the cake and in the streusel.  It's just the right amount of cinnamon spice and everyone knows that cinnamon and peaches taste amazing together!

Plus, we added extra vanilla to really boost the flavor up in the cake and the glaze.  You will not be disappointed.  This peach cake is moist, flavorful and I can't wait for you to try it!

Tips for Making the Coffee Cake with Peaches

• This streusel is super easy to make.  Just make sure to refrigerate the streusel while you are making the cake and peeling/dicing the peaches.
• Peaches should be peeled and chopped into bite size chunks for best results for baking through and they will distribute more evenly throughout your cake batter, thus getting more peach in each bite.
• You could use frozen or canned peaches as well, if you don't have fresh peaches.  If using canned peaches, just make sure to drain the juice off as much as possible and chop them up.
• Let the sour cream/yogurt, egg and milk come to room temperature for best results.
• Butter should be very softened when making the cake.  If it's not softened, the butter/sugar mixture could seize up when adding the eggs, sour cream/yogurt and milk, which means chunks of butter and a lumpy mixture.
• When adding the dry mixture to the wet mixture, don't overmix the batter.  Fold the peaches into the mixture.
• Use a toothpick to make sure the cake is done, if necessary.  It should come out with crumbs, with no creamy cake mixture left on the toothpick.
• This cake was made in an 8 inch springform pan, but you could also use a 9 inch pan if preferred.  Just remember it will be thinner and you bake it for less time, so 45-50 minutes.
• Let cake cool before adding the glaze on top. Glaze is optional, but I prefer it! 🙂

Would be awesome with a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream!  Don't let summer pass without baking this peach streusel coffee cake recipe!  It's calling your name too!
