A sweet, moist loaf perfect for lazy weekend mornings, infused with the essence of sun-ripened peaches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups peaches (diced & lightly packed)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • For the glaze:
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup salted butter (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup peaches (diced)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and milk. Whisk until well incorporated.
  3. Pour in the canola oil, add the egg, and stir in the vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
  4. Fold in the diced peaches.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture in batches, stirring gently until just combined.
  7. Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the glaze, combine powdered sugar, melted butter, milk, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. Stir until smooth.
  11. Once the bread is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the loaf, topping it off with diced peaches.

Notes

You can use frozen peaches—just thaw and drain them to avoid excess moisture. The recipe is forgiving, so feel free to adjust the ingredients to suit your taste.
