Why I Love this Cake
- Quick to make
- Almost fool-proof
- Family-friendly
I love this cake because it doesn’t require much of my effort, and my kids all love it! It is super fluffy, light, but satisfying, and a fuss-free bake. It is like a cross between a peach bread and angel food cake. I personally love mine with a dollop of whipped cream and nuts on top!
How to Make Peach Angel Food Cake
This cake is so simple to make and consists of really only a few steps for success.
Gather all your supplies and two ingredient items.
Adjust the oven rack to the center position and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick baking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, empty peaches inside, and gently mash the peaches to break them up.
Add cake mix inside –you do not need water!
Using a whisk, gently mix with just the tip of the whisk to avoid the powder from getting all over. Once the mixture begins to combine, use the full whisk and beat until fluffy and combined.
Pour mixture into the pan, and bake for 30-33 minutes. The top will be fluffy, and cracked, but will slightly sink as it cools.
Allow cake to cool for 15 minutes before slicing & enjoy!
Recipe Tips
Cake Mix – Be sure to only use the 16 ounce size “just add water” variety of Angel food cake mix. You WILL not be adding the water.
Diced Peaches – You will need a 15-ounce can of diced peaches in heavy syrup or light juice. You can also use clings, or halves, but will need to mash them with a potato masher to break up the pieces.
Nonstick Baking Spray – For stone pans, I do find they need to be lightly greased on the bottom. However, for this recipe, you do not need to grease the sides of ceramic, stone , or glass baking dishes. The angel food cake rises and needs the pan to “climb up” your pan. If you heavily grease it, the cake will not rise and will be a flat bust! Your cake will leave a coating in your glass pan, but once fully cooled you’ll be able to remove the slices from the pan.
Pan Size/Type – This can be baked in a 9 x 13 size rectangle pan, or a lightly greased bundt cake pan. Personally, I prefer the 9 x 13 sized pan for the fluffiest cake.
Toppings – If you are following a certain lifestyle (like WW) I recommend using sugar-free whipped topping, berries, or nuts. If not, whipped cream, or topping like Cool Whip tastes really good! Even some vanilla ice cream would pair well!
How to Store this Cake
This cake can be frozen (with no toppings) after cooling in an airtight container for up to 30 days. When stored at room temperature it will last 3-4 days when covered tightly.

Only had sliced peaches so I chopped them up and used them. Waiting to see how it comes out…also used a tube pan. I don’t have a 9×13 pan. Who knew. Lol

Hi, walnuts and a bit of brown sugar on top would work.
Jamie R says
Can I add some walnuts to the mixture? Can I sprinkle a small amount of brown sugar on top and then bake?
judith Bauer says
Can I make this using mixed fruit?
Deb says
I made this recipe for my family and it was delicious! I used the Del Monte no sugar added sliced peaches since I’m watching my sugar intake and it was still so so good!
Amy Desrosiers says
It would probably ruin the texture once defrosted.
Linda F Melchiano-Gay says
Can this be frozen?
Amy Desrosiers says

Have you tried this recipe using gluten-free angle food cake mix? My daughter is avoiding gluten and would like to make this for her. Thanks
