Ginger Peach Coffee Cake

gluten free ginger peach coffee cake

This cake is moist on the inside and sweet and crispy around the outside. Perfect with afternoon coffee or as dessert for company (and maybe even breakfast!). You can make many different types of coffee cake using this recipe, but one of my favorites is ginger peach... plus I had peaches sitting on my counter that weren't getting eaten! See variations below for other ideas.

I use a 9x9 baking dish but you could try a bundt pan or others

1 1/3 cup Light Flour Blend (see flour blends)
3/4 cup Sugar
