Peach and Raspberry Streusel Cake

Peach and raspberry streusel  cake is a cake that we love to make in summer when fresh peaches are in season. A moist cake scented with orange zest, peaches and raspberries, loaded on top with a delicious crunchy cinnamon streusel crumble.

We grew up eating this cake as it was a combination that our Mum, Noela, used to serve up regularly. Growing up on a farm, that at one time had been a nursery there were fruit trees galore around the farm. Quince, plum, peach, apricot, almonds and walnut trees, to name a few. Food adventures featured heavily in our childhood, and cakes and baking were always high on the agenda.

Peaches

Sweet yellow peaches are delicious baked into the cake. Their juices merge with the batter and raspberries to create a perfect combination.

Perhaps the easiest way to peel your peaches is to make a small cross incision at the base. Pop the peaches into boiling water for a minute then remove. The skin will easily peel of from where the slit was made.

The streusel

The streusel creates a sweet, buttery and crumbly topping that marries perfectly with the juicy peaches and raspberries.
