  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 1 loaf 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon of baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • ½ cup of unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 cup of fresh or canned peaches, diced
  • ½ cup of sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Optional: cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor

Instructions

  1. Start by peeling and chopping fresh peaches, or drain canned peaches if using canned. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and optional spices like cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream or Greek yogurt until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, mixing gently until just combined. Fold in the diced peaches evenly.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.
  6. Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Tent with foil after 45 minutes if it browns too quickly.

Notes

  • Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For longer storage, wrap slices individually and freeze. Reheat before serving for the best taste.
