- 3 tablespoons sugar (about 38 grams)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch (about 16 grams)
- The zest of 1 lemon
- 2 eggs
- 100 grams sugar (about 1/2 cup)

- 230 grams flour (about 1.8 cups)
- 1 packet baking powder
- 200 grams peaches (about 1 to 2 peaches)

Directions:
Make the cream by pouring milk into a saucepan. Add egg yolk, sugar, and cornstarch. Mix well. Cut lemon zest and add to the pan. Place on stove and stir until the cream thickens. Remove and discard lemon zest. Transfer to a bowl and cover. Leave to cool.
Beat eggs with sugar, then pour in milk and oil. Combine thoroughly. Grate lemon zest and add to the mixture. Sift flour with baking powder and add to the batter. Stir until smooth.
Pour most of the batter into a 24 cm diameter baking tin lined with paper. Bake at 170 degrees Celsius (about 340 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and pour cream over the batter. Peel and dice peaches, then spread over the cream. Pour the remaining batter on top. Return to oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from tin and paper, place on a serving dish, sprinkle with powdered sugar, cut, and serve.
