Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 deg. Fahrenheit (180 deg. Celsius) and grease a small round cake pan with a removable bottom.
- In a medium bowl, mix the sliced peaches, sugar, and 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the non-dairy milk with the lemon juice and let it sit for a while. Add one cup of coconut oil and mix until combined.
- In another bowl, whisk the brown rice flour, sorghum flour, cornstarch, tapioca starch, xantham gum, baking powder, sugar, salt, vanilla, ground cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Sift the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix well with a wooden spoon until you get a homogeneous cake batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and and smooth the surface with a spatula. Arrange the sliced peaches on top of the batter.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the peaches are golden on top.
- Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan.
