To a blender, add the quartered peaches and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Pour into a medium saucepan and then add the sugar. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a gentle simmer and cook this, while stirring frequently, until thickened, about 8 minutes. Set aside.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and prep two (8-inch) round cake pans. I like to place round of parchment on the bottom of my cake pans too, just to make sure nothing sticks.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Measure out the yogurt and milk and whisk it together until smooth.

In the bowl of a stand-up mixer, with the paddle attachment, add the butter and sugar; beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla extract; beat until combined about 30 seconds.

Next, alternating between the dry ingredients and yogurt mixture, add them to the butter mixture until combined. Scrape the bottom of the bowl just to make sure there aren’t any flour-y bits hiding. Divide amongst the two prepared cake pans and transfer to the oven to bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow to cool in their pans for 5 to 7 minutes, until inverting them onto cooling racks.

To the bowl of a stand-up mixer with the paddle attachment, add the butter. Beat for 30 seconds, until smooth. Add the sifted powdered sugar, maple syrup, yogurt and pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes.

Add the frosting how you like, adding the peach jam in between the layers. (You might end up with about 1/4 cup leftover--you can use it on toast!) I did a simple crumb coat and then transferred it to the fridge and added one more smooth coat.

I added a few slices of peaches, golden raspberries and mint leaves to one side of the cake. And then dusted it with sifted powdered sugar. That’s it! Slice and serve.
