German Cobbler Cake #RSC

"Ready, Set, Cook! Reynolds Wrap Contest Entry. My mother is a fabulous cook. This truly delicious Bundt cake is her recipe. It is a fabulous cake made with juicy summer peaches and fresh pears. I made it for the first time when I was 14. Carrying on her culinary history, I make it often for my family. The moist texture comes from the ingredients and method of preparation."

  1. I wanted to say that using the foil ring under the cake kept the cake from browning too much. The bottom of the foil was brown so that tells me that if I had not used it, the cake would have been brown instead. Yesterday I made an apple bundt cake and used the foil ring and water. I have made that cake many times and this time it came out even more moist than usual. And the color was even. I learned something new about baking!
     
  2. This recipe is very good. I wonder if canned peaches and pears could be used. And I agree that the foil ring gives the cake a more even color. I like the way the fruit is all on top after you flip it over onto the serving platter. Looks and tastes wonderful.
