Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C and grease and line a deep 23cm springform cake tin with nonstick baking paper. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric whisk or wooden spoon for 3 mins or until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, gradually adding half the flouras you go. Whisk until combined. Add the remaining flour, the almonds, baking powder and vanilla; mix until just combined. Remove 150g of the mixture and stir through 50g coulis.
  2. Line the base of the cake tin with the peaches, cut-side down. Dollop the cake mixtures alternately over the top, then swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect. Bake for 1 hr or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. If the cake looks like it's browning too much, cover with foil after 50 mins.
  3. Leave to cool on a wire rack for 10 mins, then carefully turn out onto a plate. Serve warm or cold with raspberries, a little extra coulis and a dollop of crème fraîche, if you like. Will keep in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
