Cooking spray
2 cinnamon sticks
8 ripe peaches, nectarines and/or plums, halved and pitted
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (28 grams)
2 tablespoons maple syrup (30 milliliters)
1 orange, zested and juiced
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup brown sugar (100 grams)
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour (50 grams)
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup chopped pecans, optional (95 grams)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (56 grams)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (112 grams)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (100 grams)
1/2 cup brown sugar (100 grams)
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup full fat plain or vanilla yogurt (250 milliliters)
2 cups all-purpose flour (270 grams)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the fruit: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 9-inch square baking pan and another pan large enough for the fruit with cooking spray.
  • Add the cinnamon sticks to the pan and nestle in the fruit, cut side up. In a small bowl, stir together the butter, syrup, orange zest and juice and vanilla extract and pour over the fruit.
  • For the streusel: Mix together the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, cocoa powder, salt and pecan pieces, if using, in a small bowl. Pour over the melted butter and rub the mixture together with your fingers until crumbly and well combined.
  • For the cake: Use a hand or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment to cream the butter and sugars together until pale and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract and yogurt.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir just to combine.
  • Spread a little less than half of the cake batter into the 9-inch pan. Scatter with half of the streusel mixture then carefully cover with the remaining cake batter. Sprinkle with the remaining streusel.
  • Bake the cake and the fruit for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean and the fruit is cooked down and soft. Set aside to cool slightly or all the way to room temperature
  • To serve, cut the cake into squares and serve topped with the roasted fruit.
