Notes

This cake can be made with either fresh or canned peaches; just make sure to drain canned peaches well to avoid excess moisture. The flavor of the cake improves after a day, making it great for make-ahead desserts. Feel free to substitute Greek yogurt for some of the butter for a healthier option. Consider adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a unique twist to the flavor profile. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days for the best freshness.
