Fun summer recipes with peaches

Here are a few delicious peach recipes you should definitely try this summer.

Peach cake

Ingredients

• 2 cups of flour
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• 1 packet of baking powder
• sprinkle of salt
• 2 dl/one cup of yoghurt
• 2 eggs
• 1 dl/half a cup of sunflower oil
• 6 medium peaches

Wash the peaches, dry them, and halve them.

Mix the flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, and baking powder first, then add the eggs and yoghurt in smaller portions while stirring. Lastly, mix the oil into the dough.

Set the oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with some baking sheet, pour the dough in and make sure it is even. Add the peaches, with the outer side facing up.

Bake for about 45 minutes, then do the needle test to make sure it is evenly baked everywhere.

Creamy peach soup

Ingredients

• 1 kg peach
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• 2 dl cooking cream
• 1 packet of vanilla pudding powder
• roughly 5 dl water

Wash the peaches, get the seeds out, and cut them into bigger chunks. Put them in a pot with just enough water to cover them, and start cooking.

Add the sugar – feel free to add more if you like a sweeter taste or if your peaches are not very ripe yet. As soon as it is cooked, blend it with a hand blender.

Mix the pudding powder with the cooking cream until smooth. Pour it into the soup and bring it to a boil. Once it has cooled down, put it in the fridge. Eat it while cold, and decorate it with some more slices of peach and mint leaves if you want.
