  5. On low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the sour cream in two parts, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix only until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped peaches.
  7. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature ingredients as it helps the batter come together smoothly.
To prevent peaches from sinking, toss them with a tablespoon of the flour mixture before folding them into the batter.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
