Electric Stand Mixer

Ingredients

1 cup butter (I use salted) room temperature
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh peaches, pitted and chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and butter and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Or you can use baking spray.
Using a stand mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 6-8 minutes.
Beat in eggs one at a time.
Beat in vanilla. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is evenly mixed.
Set aside 1/4 cup of flour to toss with the peaches and sift together the remaining flour with the baking powder and salt. Add to mixing bowl and mix just until incorporated.
Toss peaches with the 1/4 cup flour and fold into batter.
Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake for 60 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes and then remove from pan.
