This is almost the same recipe that my grandmother passed down but she called it cinnamon cake and we sprinkle brown sugar on top with cinnamon. We bake it in round cake pans and make it with blueberries, apples or peaches. My husband calls the blueberry version “blueberry pizza”.
That’s great! Thanks for sharing!
I made this cake over and over again during peach season.Thanks for the recipe!! I may try using apples now instead of the peaches. Love all your recipes. Nancy
That’s great! I bet apples would be good, too! And Pears!! Enjoy! 🙂
