Peach Buckle - Martha Stewart

Peach Buckle

Fruit in baked goods. I'm home.

I picked up some peaches at the farmers market and peeled three large ones for this delicious buckle.

Easy peasy. Fruit, batter, and a topping of cinnamon sugar and sliced almonds. Since one of my co-workers doesn't eat nuts (but not allergic) I sprinkled the nuts over 1/2 the buckle.

This is a recipe from Martha Stewart...she makes it in a iron skillet. That makes are great presentation. However, I popped mine in a 9" square pan because it is easier to cut into squares to serve at the library.

I'm making your previous post recipe for strawberry cake, but have it figured out that one slice (8 total) is only 8 points, so I'm GOING FOR IT!!!!; July 21, 2011 at 4:30 PM

Meister @ The Nervous Cook said... [Reply to comment]: Gorgeous! Do you think this would be okay without peeling the peaches?; July 22, 2011 at 5:13 PM
The Food Librarian said... [Reply to comment]: @Meister @ The Nervous Cook Hi! I'm not sure...I almost always peel my peaches in baking unless the recipe says you shouldn't. The skin will probably fall off during baking so you might feel little pieces of skin when you eat it. Good luck with whatever method you try. - mary; July 25, 2011 at 10:21 AM
