National Peaches & Cream Day & an Upside Down Skillet Cake (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Before I start listing all the reasons that you need to make this, have I told you guys how terrible I am at making decisions?

Well as you can probably tell I take too many pictures and can never figure out how to choose. Oh well, it's just my personal challenge.

All-righty, we’ve got some cake to discuss. I should be sure to give my mom an honorable shout-out here because this was an idea I had that she helped turn into something 10x better. I was throwing around the idea of something involving peaches and cream and cake. It was her idea to do it upside-down style in my poor, way too neglected, cast iron skillets. I really need to put those in a more accessible spot in the kitchen because I’m constantly forgetting to use them. (You think I can tap my heels together or wiggle my nose or something to get a more spacious and funtional kitchen? Yeah, didn’t think so.)

Her suggestion totally saved the day and turned this one into something that I’m super excited about sharing. Upside down cake people, be prepared for more of it ’cause I’ve fallen in love over here. Obviously the best part ever is when you get to flip it out of the pan with all the steaming, bubbling, syrupy goodness and reveal the gorgeous top/bottom of fruit! I can’t wait to try every flavor fruit I can think of, except possibly tomato because that would be weird and gross, but I think apple is definitely happing later this year!

So basically, you really have to make this. Also, even though it kind of feels like cheating a little bit, I used a cake recipe that is already one of my favorites. I thought it went really well with the fruity topping and helped balance this for the perfect sweet summertime treat.

As always, the recipe is available upon request, and I always give an upvote for the first one.

I think you are as talented behind the camera and your staging efforts, as you might be in the kitchen itself.
