The mellow flavour and pleasant aroma of peaches go very well with the spicy notes of cinnamon and dry ginger. This winning formula is the secret behind the success of this soft and spongy cake.

Canned peaches and crunchy walnuts are worked into the cake batter, which is beautifully flavoured with cinnamon and dry ginger. The outcome is a fabulously flavoured, soft and spongy Cinnamon Peach Cake, which nobody can resist! You can serve the cake warm, plain or with ice-cream.

If you wish you can serve topped with an icing like Vanilla Butter Icing or Chocolate Butter Icing .
