SUMMER PEACH CAKE WITH FRESH PEACHES

On the recent trip from Florida we stopped by two peach farms where I ended up getting a few pounds of perfect, juicy peaches! This almond flour peach cake is such a great way to use up those sweet peaches. It’s truly the perfect summer cake! The base of the cake is made with a juice and zest from a whole lemon which gives it an incredible lemony flavor. Coconut sugar gives it an amazing caramel like flavor. You can use any sweetener you like, but coconut sugar is just everything in this recipe! 

The cake batter is made with a blend of almond and tapioca flour. Since almond flour tends to have more moisture than wheat flour, so you need to reduce the amount of liquid and fat by adding a starch. I used tapioca starch but you can also substitute with cassava or arrowroot.
