When you think of a perfect summer dessert, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s something fruity, light, and refreshing. If that sounds appealing to you, then look no further than a delicious peach in syrup and amaretti cake!

First off, let’s start with the peaches in syrup. This is a simple but elegant dish that really lets the flavor of fresh, ripe peaches shine through. To make the syrup, you’ll need some sugar, water, and a bit of lemon juice. Combine these ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Then, add in your peeled and sliced peaches, and let them cook for a few minutes until they start to soften and the syrup thickens.

Once your peaches are ready, it’s time to move on to the cake. The star ingredient here is amaretti cookies, which are made with almond flour and have a sweet, nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with the peaches. To make the cake itself, you’ll need:

– 1 cup of all-purpose flour
– 1 cup of ground amaretti cookies (you can buy these pre-made or make them yourself by pulsing whole amaretti cookies in a food processor)
– 1 tsp of baking powder
– 1/4 tsp of salt
– 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup of granulated sugar
– 3 eggs
– 1 tsp of vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup of milk

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and greasing an 8-inch cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, ground amaretti cookies, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract, then slowly add in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until everything is well combined.

Pour the batter into your greased cake pan, then arrange the cooked peaches on top in an even layer. Drizzle some of the remaining syrup over the peaches, then bake the cake for about 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once your cake is fully cooled, you can slice it up and serve it alongside more of the delicious peach syrup. The combination of the nutty amaretti and juicy, sweet peaches is simply irresistible, and this cake makes for a perfect ending to any summer meal.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you could even try swapping out the peaches for other seasonal fruits, like apricots, nectarines, or plums. And if you really want to take things to the next level, you could even add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to really make this dessert sing.

So go ahead and give this peach in syrup and amaretti cake a try. With its irresistible combination of sweet, nutty goodness and luscious summer fruit, it’s sure to become a new favorite in your dessert repertoire.
