I have been a bad blogger. Not to say I haven’t been cooking and baking, but with a crazy semester of school, I just haven’t had the energy to write about my cooking…just eat it. In the next week or so, I’ll try to catch up on all the yummy recipes that I’ve made (and photographed) in the last few months.
To start, this is another recipe from Annie of Annie’s Eats . I took it to DSAC (the Dean’s Student Advisory Committee) at school where it was a big hit. It was really delicious and though I had hoped for left overs to eat for breakfast, it got gobbled up within ten minutes.
The recipe is directly followed, but re-posted here.
Peach Pound Cake
Ingredients
1 cup + 2 tbsp. butter
2 ½ cups sugar, divided
4 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tsp. baking powder
2 cups fresh peaches, peeled, pitted and chopped
½ tsp. salt
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 10-inch Bundt pan with 2 tbsp. of butter and dust with ¼ cup of sugar; set aside.
Using an electric mixer, cream together remaining butter and sugar. Continue beating and add eggs one at a time. Once fully incorporated, gradually add 2 ¾ cups flour, baking powder, and salt to mixture, beating until fully incorporated.
Dredge peaches with remaining ¼ cup flour and fold into batter. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Strawberry Jam Crumb Coffee Cake
March 9, 2008 at 3:43 pm | In Cakes | Leave a CommentI love The Nest. I love the Nest because the girls on it are so nice and helpful and share such wonderful recipes. One of the recipes that I was able to find was for the Strawberry Jam Crumb Coffee Cake…which has been my breakfast for the last 6 days…I know sad how long I can eat leftovers for, but seriously, that’s how good it is. I don’t think there’s anything else left to say about it except, TRY IT. It’s really delicious and not difficult to make…well, except opening the strawberry jam jar…that took several hours and hubs doing at it with a hammer, but that’s a whole other story…
For this post, I’m just going to send a link to Annie’s blog, since I didn’t change her recipe. It was really good as is, and I agree with her post about it using fresh strawberries next time around (when they’re in season).
One more thing…this photo isn’t the best and doesn’t do the cake justice. I didn’t think to take a picture of the cake until there was ONE piece of it left, so this is the absolute last piece of it, after hubby and I picked away at the cake…next time I’ll definitely get a better picture and maybe replace this one.
