Ingredients

    2-3 large ripe peaches
    4 ounces tofu
    1 cup unsweetened apple juice
    grated zest of 1 lemon
    1/3 cup sunflower oil
    1/3 cup plus 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
    2 cups sifted whole wheat pastry flour
    1 teaspoon sea salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-in square or round cake pan. Drizzle one tablespoon syrup over the bottom.

Peel and pit the peaches. Cut lengthwise into slices 1/4 inch thick. Arrange in even rows on the bottom of the prepared pan.

In a blender, thoroughly blend the tofu and apple juice. Whisk with the lemon zest, oil, and 1/3 cup syrup in a medium-sized bowl.

Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, ginger, and allspice. Gradually add to the wet mixture, whisking gently, just until a smooth batter forms. Pour evenly over the fruit slices.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool the cake for 3 minutes on a reach, then invert it onto a plate. Serve ward or at room temperature.
