Peach Coffee Cake
This Peach Coffee Cake is the perfect balance of soft, buttery crumb and juicy summer sweetness. Fresh peaches are folded into a tender, cinnamon-spiced cake and topped with a golden brown streusel that adds just the right amount of crunch. Whether you serve it warm with your morning coffee or as a sweet afternoon treat, it’s the kind of cozy bake that tastes like sunshine in every bite. Bonus: it smells insanely good in the oven.
