Summer Peach Crumble Cake

Hi Everyone,

I get so excited this time of year when all the lovely stone fruits come into season. Can’t wait to try out every recipe possible and this crumble recipe certainly hit a soft spot of mine.

Based on a recipe sent to me from the Interalpen Hotel in Austria – read previous post about our stay there. 

The original recipe used plums which I exchanged for peaches but I also once made this with blueberries – so use whatever fruit you have or a combination of your favourites – anything goes!

Keep reading for this delicious “Summer Peach Crumble Cake” recipe.
