Easy Italian Fresh Peach Crumb Cake
Do you ever go to the bakery because you are obsessed with one or two of their Baked Goods? Well that was me for years.
I would buy this amazing Italian Crumb Cake, or better known in Italian as La Torta Sbriciolata. I would usually get the Nutella Crumb Cake because I gotta tell you that is one of the best!

And then summer rolled around and we had an over abundance of peaches so why not an Easy Italian Fresh Peach Crumb Cake? I am lucky to have a few friends, like me who like to bake.
One day, over coffee, I was served my bakery favourite. Believe me it was even better homemade. After I raved about how much I loved this Italian Crumb Cake and how I could never get enough of it.
She told me the recipe, I say told because it always amazes me how Italians just have all these recipes on the tip of their tongue.
Needless to say I’m nowhere near as efficient as that, so I never leave home without a pen and small notepad. You wouldn’t believe some of the amazing recipes I have over heard in the grocery store.
Peach Crumb Cake
So since I had all those peaches hanging around, I thought I would give this Crumb Cake a summer feel by filling it with peaches.
Easy Italian Fresh Peach Crumb Cake is probably one of the fastest cake to make. It’s all crumbs, seriously.
Two thirds of the crumbs go on the bottom of the pan, then add the sliced fresh peaches, top with the rest of the crumbs and into the oven it goes.
I served mine with a little vanilla ice cream but why not warm from the oven with a cup of coffee? Now that’s a tasty Summer Dessert. Enjoy!
