Peach Chocolate Cake
March 28, 2012
We always want the best for our children, especially when their health is on the line. However, it can be such a chore to feed your children with vegetables and even fruits. Thus, you have to come up with ways to successfully do so.
Peaches pack a lot of nutritional value that we need, such as niacin, thiamine, potassium and calcium. They also have high levels of beta carotene, an antioxidant that converts into Vitamin A, which the human body requires to have a healthy heart and eyes. Peaches also have high fiber contents, and this is helpful in maintaining healthy bowel.
You can let your kids eat peaches by incorporating them into other food you give them. To get them to eat more fruit like peaches, try whipping them up with fruit smoothies, and yes, cakes!
Here is a recipe that combines chocolate and peaches. A pairing that even the pickiest eater will love!
| Peach Chocolate Cake • 1 1/2 cups flour • 1 cup sugar • 1/4 cup cocoa powder • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1 cup water • 1/4 cup oil • 1 teaspoon vinegar • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 2 cups peach slices Combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Add water, oil, vinegar and vanilla. Beat with a wire whisk or wooden spoon just until batter is smooth and ingredients are well blended. Pour into two 8-inch round cake pans that have been sprayed with non stick vegetable coating spray. Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes or until wood pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes, then remove from pan. Cool completely on a wire rack. Just before serving, place 1 layer on serving plate and arrange 1 cup peach slices on top. Top with second cake layer and remaining peaches. |
Enjoy!
