Ingredients
  

For the Cake:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup granulated sugar

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

¼ tsp salt

½ cup unsalted butter, softened

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ cup buttermilk

1 cup fresh peaches, diced

½ cup fresh blackberries

For the Topping:

½ cup brown sugar, packed

½ cup rolled oats

½ tsp ground cinnamon

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

¼ cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

      Cream Butter and Eggs: In another bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

        Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Alternate adding the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

          Fold in Fruits: Gently fold in the diced peaches and blackberries, taking care not to break the berries.

            Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, melted butter, and pecans (if using) until crumbly and well mixed.

              Assemble the Cake: Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the topping mixture evenly over the cake batter.

                Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The cake should be golden brown on top.

                  Cool: Once out of the oven, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

                    Serve: Slice and serve warm or at room temperature, perfect for breakfast or a sweet afternoon treat!
