Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

1 ½ cups wholewheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda

Liquid Ingredients

6 tablespoon butter (softened)
1 cup brown sugar + 1 tablespoon (for peach on top)
2 eggs
½ teaspoon vanilla
⅔ cup 2% milk fat Greek yogurt

Topping

2 large peaches (sliced into wedges)
2 teaspoon powdered sugar (for decoration)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle. Grease the side and the bottom of the springform pan with butter or cooking spray.
DRY INGREDIENTS: Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, together into a medium bowl.
LIQUID INGREDIENTS: In a separate bowl, beat butter, sugar, and 2 eggs until very light in color and fluffy, 2-3 minutes on high speed. Add vanilla and Greek yogurt and continue beating until very creamy and light in color, for about 1 more minute.
Keeping the mixer speed low, mix in the DRY INGREDIENTS into LIQUID INGREDIENTS until combined. Do not overmix.
Transfer the cake batter to the springform pan. Top with sliced peaches. Sprinkle the fruit with 1 teaspoon granulated sugar.
Bake until cake turns golden, and the tester comes out clean in the center, about 1 hour, depending on your oven.
When the cake is done baking, let it cool (still in the baking pan) on a wire rack for 15 minutes. After cake has cooled for about 40 minutes, release the cake from the springform pan.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar on top.
