Peach Cake with peach glaze

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Stir together and set aside 

1 stick butter melted

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup light brown sugar

2 eggs 

1 teaspoon vanilla

2/3 cups peach puree

Mix well and add to dry ingredients 

Fold in 1 cup diced peaches

Pour into a 9 or 10 round pan that's been sprayed well with PAM 

Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or until toothpick comes our clean 

Let cool a bit then make a glaze from confectioners sugar, peach puree and a bit of milk.  Spread over cake.  Cream cheese icing is also good but let the cake cool completely before adding icing. 

I made my peach puree but next time I'm going to try peach baby food. I think it would work great and no mess.
