Ingredients
- 2 cups small-diced peeled ripe peaches
- ½ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon bleached all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter, softened
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup masa flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
How to Make It
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Coat a Lodge 9-inch cast iron skillet with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, combine the peaches, brown sugar, melted butter, and 1 tablespoon flour.
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter, oil, and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a small bowl, sift the remaining 1 cup all-purpose flour, the masa flour, salt, and baking powder together three times. Alternating with the milk, add it to the batter, beating with the mixer until smooth. Use a rubber spatula to scrape any batter down from the side of the bowl. Add the vanilla, and mix until smooth.
- Spoon the peaches evenly over the bottom of the pan; pour the batter over the fruit. Place the skillet on the middle rack of the oven, and bake until the center of the cake springs back when touched or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the oven, and let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Invert the cake onto a serving platter, and cut into wedges to serve.
