Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan, dusting it lightly with flour.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture, alternating with buttermilk, starting and ending with dry ingredients.
  6. Fold in the diced peaches, grated ginger, and chopped candied ginger until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top evenly.
  8. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, checking doneness with a toothpick in the center.
  9. Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
