Peach Almond Upside Down Cake
"Peaches and almonds are such a natural pairing! This is lovely with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream flavoured with a wee bit of almond extract. I use my regular cottage cake and then play around with different toppings. This is one that I came up with for a friends birthday. "
