Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch cake pan (and, optionally, line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper, otherwise just grease very well).
- Mix almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl; set aside.
- In another bowl, use a rubber spatula to cream the butter and sugar together until mixed well. Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well until incorporated. Add the vanilla and grated lemon zest; stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with your spatula until they're all blended together. Add the sour cream and stir until it's fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the greased cake pan (it will be thick). Use your spatula to smooth out the top. Place the peach slices in a radial pattern, starting from the outer edges and working your way in. Sprinkle the top with the sliced or flaked almonds.
- Bake the cake for approximately 45 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Run a knife along the edges of the pan and flip out of the pan onto a wire cooling rack. Make sure to flip the cake right side up once it's on the rack so that the top of the cake with the peaches are facing up. Once the cake is barely warm, dust the top with powdered sugar.

PEACH POUNDCAKE
This recipe proves that the perfect summer pound cake takes no special equipment or skill to pull off. Once you've prepared the peaches, this is essentially a dump-and-whisk cake. Puréed peaches (plus an extra egg yolk) keep the cake from drying out. Diced peaches add bursts of fresh fruit, and a peach glaze lends another layer of flavor. Use sweet, ripe peaches for best results, but frozen work fine here, too. If you're looking for a spin on classic peaches and cream, serve a slice with lightly sweetened whipped cream.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly butter and flour a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan, and set aside.
- Dice 1 peach into 1/3-inch pieces. Pat the pieces dry with a paper towel and set aside.
- Add the remaining 2 peaches and the lemon juice to a food processor or blender, and blend on high until completely puréed. Measure out 1 leveled cup of the purée and transfer it to a mixing bowl along with the melted butter, eggs, egg yolk and vanilla. Whisk to combine and set aside.
- Completely scrape down the sides of the food processor, and make the icing using the small amount of puréed peaches still remaining: Add 1 cup of the confectioners' sugar to the remaining peach purée in the food processor and blend on high until combined. The icing should be thick but thin enough to drizzle. Add more confectioners' sugar to thicken or a splash of water to thin, as needed. Cover and set aside until it's time to ice the cake.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt, and whisk to combine. Pour the peach mixture into the flour mixture, and whisk well until the batter is thoroughly combined, then fold in the diced peaches. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan, spread evenly to the edges, and bake until crusty and golden brown on the top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 75 to 80 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Stir the icing a final time and spread it on top of the warm cake, allowing the extra icing to drip down the sides. Cool the cake to room temperature. Slice and serve, or wrap tightly with plastic wrap and store on the counter for up to 3 days.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh peaches, you can use frozen or canned peaches, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.
Conclusion:
Peach almond pound cake is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its moist, tender crumb and sweet, fruity flavor, this cake is perfect for any occasion.
