Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Peaches: Spread peach slices between several layers of paper towels. Gently press occasionally and replace any soaked towels, allowing them to dry for about 20 minutes.

02

Step

Create the Caramel Base: Pour melted butter over the bottom of a 6-quart oval slow cooker. In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the butter in the slow cooker.

03

Step

Arrange the Peaches: Arrange the peach slices in a tight, single layer over the brown sugar mixture. You may need to create a partial second layer to fit all the peaches.

04

Step

Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with white sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated. Stir in the almond extract.

05

Step

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until the batter is well combined.

06

Step

Assemble and Slow Cook: Spoon the cake batter evenly over the peaches, spreading it gently to cover the entire surface. Drape paper towels over the top of the slow cooker to absorb any condensation during baking.

07

Step

Cook: Cover and cook on High for 2 hours to 2 hours and 30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

08

Step

Cool and Invert: Remove the lid and paper towels. Using oven mitts, carefully remove the ceramic liner from the slow cooker and let it cool for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the cake to loosen it. Carefully invert the cake onto a serving platter.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of bourbon or rum to the melted butter before pouring it into the slow cooker.
Ensure the peaches are well-drained to prevent the cake from becoming soggy.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a truly decadent dessert.

    The paper towel trick is genius! No soggy cake here.

    My slow cooker tends to run hot, so I cooked it on Low for 3 hours instead, and it turned out perfectly.

    This recipe was surprisingly easy and the cake was incredibly moist!
