½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
Zest of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 170c fan. Grease and line a 23cm springform cake tin.
Prepare the peaches by slicing them into 1/2cm wedges. Mix the flour, sugar, almonds, tapioca starch, baking powder and bicarb of soda in a large bowl. Then add the oil, milk, eggs, vanilla and lemon zest.
Beat until all is combined, then pour the batter into the prepared tin and place the peach wedges on top, (I used 2½ peaches).
Place in the oven and bake for appx. 48-52 mins. A skewer inserted into the centre should come out clean.
Once ready take out the oven, allow to cool for a few mins and then transfer to a wire rack. Before serving dust with icing sugar.
