Peaches and coconut give this variation from Terri Holmgren of Swanville, Minnesota a refreshing flavor that's especially nice for spring and summer.
Ingredients:
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 can (29 ounces) peach halves
1/4 cup flaked coconut
2 eggs
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Pour butter into a 9-in. round baking pan; sprinkle with brown sugar. Drain peaches, reserving 6 tablespoons of syrup. Arrange peach halves, cut side down, in a single layer over the sugar. Sprinkle coconut around peaches; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs until thick and lemon-colored; gradually beat in sugar. Add extract and reserved syrup. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture and mix well.
3. Pour over peaches. Bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; invert cake onto a serving plate. Serve warm. Yield: 6-8 servings.
