Steps:
- 1. Beat the eggs with oil and peach nectar, using an electric mixer, until blended. Add cinnamon and cake mix and continue beating on high speed for 2 minutes.
- 2. Beat in the finely chopped nectarines or peaches and chopped pecans.
- 3. Spoon the batter into a greased and floured Bundt pan.
- 4. Bake at 325 degrees for 55-60 minutes.
- 5. Cool on a rack for 15 minutes; invert and cool completely.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy peaches. If your peaches are not quite ripe, you can speed up the ripening process by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or banana.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake is done when it is golden brown on top and the edges are pulling away from the sides of the pan.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
