1. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

2. Stir the melted butter and brown sugar together in the pan, then spread the mixture evenly across the bottom.

3. Arrange the sliced peaches in a single layer over the brown sugar mixture and scatter the chopped pecans over the peaches.

4. Whisk the flour and baking powder together in a bowl.

5. Beat the 1/4 cup butter with the white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the almond extract and amaretto.

6. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in two additions, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined. Spread the batter gently over the peaches.

7. Bake for about 25 minutes, until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

8. Cool the cake in the pan for 5 minutes, run a knife around the edge, then invert onto a serving plate and lift off the pan. Let cool before serving.
