Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and butter a non-stick 23cm ring tin. Arrange the peaches, cut side up, in the base if the tin, then randomly spoon in the peach conserve and scatter over the redcurrants.

  • step 2

    To make the cake, beat together the flour, baking powder, butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and milk until well mixed, then stir in the sour cream. Spoon the mixture into the cake tin, then level the surface.

  • step 3

    Bake for 35-40 mins until the cake is well risen, golden, and springs back when lightly pressed. Cool for a few mins, then carefully turn out onto a plate. You can serve warm with cream as a dessert or cold as a cake.

Delicious! I made the cake in a normal round tin, otherwise followed the recipe to the letter, and it came out fine.

Fabulous!! I couldn’t find peach conserve so used apricot instead and it worked a treat. The combination of fragrant peaches and slightly tart red currants is delightful. I used the more traditional creaming method for the cake as I find the all-in-one method often leads to a heavier, denser…

Excellent recipe - didn't have any redcurrants so I used cranberries which had been cooked in orange juice with sugar until they were gooey and omitted the jam. Delicious.

Cooked this with friends and served warm as cake-type pudding with cream... so good! Substituted raspberry jam for the conserve and it was great! Didn't last long though - was polished off in one evening!
