Ugly but Tasty

My peach teacake extracted from a posting from SMH sometime ago..finally decided to give it a try this weekend...Becos I've not seen any cake that require baking for 45mins..I stopped the microwave after 29mins...and got scolded by Daddy and threaten not going to try my cake..hehe..But finally he could not resist leh, took it as lunch, and of cos the comment was nice..peach is nice..hehe.



As for Jared, same as daddy leh, refused to take the cake, but like the peach a lot...He was yelling "mummy bake cake" when I brought the cake to him and daddy in the play room.

1 can of peaches
1/2 cup sugar**
1 cup self-rising flour
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
2 eggs
150 g butter (unsalted)

Note : oven to be pre-heated to 180 degree celsius

**you can lessen the sugar amount and add in some syrup leftover from the canned peaches, and in which case, you should add a little more flour

Steps :
- Grease the baking pan with some butter, and dust with some flour. Lay the peach halves into the pan
- In a bowl, add the eggs, sugar, butter and vanilla essence
- whisk the ingredients till light & fluffy
- Add the flour (sift it)
- Fold the flour in, and mix thoroughly
- Spread the mix over the peaches, even out
- Bake at 180 degree celsius for 45 mins . The pretty patterns on the surface are due to lesser batter that sit over where the peaches are, so if you want your cake to look pretty, arrange the peach halves well (Mine don't have pretty pattern, only crack surface.hehe, nevertheless it still taste good!)
- Remove from oven, and serve with hot custard or something cold, like vanilla ice-cream
