Ingredients:
For the Peaches:
· 3 peaches, peeled and diced
· 3 tablespoons butter
· 1 tablespoon brown sugar
· 1 teaspoon Chinese Five Spice (or any warm spice)
For the Streusel:
· 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
· 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
· 1/4 teaspoon salt
· 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
· 1 cup chopped toasted pecans
For the Cake:
· 2 cups all-purpose flour
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
· 1/2 teaspoon salt
· 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
· 1 cup sugar
· 2 large eggs
· 1 cup sour cream
· 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
· 1 orange, zested
For the Drizzle:
· 1 cup confectioners' sugar
· 2 tablespoons butter, melted
· 1 to 2 tablespoons milk (or hot water, for desired consistency)
· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
· ¼ teaspoon dry ginger
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a 9” pan, line with parchment, then spray again, coating parchment. Set aside until ready to use.
2. For the peaches: Add the butter to a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the peaches and cook until they are softened. Stir in brown sugar and let caramelize. Turn off heat, then stir in spices.
3. For the streusel: While the peaches are cooking, in a bowl, using your fingers, combine the flour, brown sugar and salt. Add the butter and mix in until crumbly. Add the pecans; press the mixture into clumps.
4. For the cake: In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar at medium-high speed until light, 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time; beat in the sour cream and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and beat at low speed until incorporated. Stir in orange zest.
5. Spread two-thirds of the batter in the pan. Fold the peaches into the remaining batter and spoon into the pan. Scatter the streusel crumbs on top. Bake the cake for 30-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool.
6. While cake is cooling, mix together glaze ingredients. While warm (but not hot), drizzle with glaze and let cool for glaze to set. Serve and enjoy!
