Ingredients

Units Scale

Bread Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (122.5 g) whole milk, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (109 g) vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups diced canned peaches, drained (reserve peach syrup)

Glaze

  • 1 cup (125 g) confectioners' sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons reserved peach syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Lightly spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray and set it aside to be ready for the batter.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine granulated sugar, whole milk, vegetable oil, the large egg, and vanilla extract. Stir this mixture until everything is well blended, then set it aside.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In another medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and kosher salt to ensure even distribution of leavening and flavor.
  4. Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients bowl. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix, which could make the bread tough.
  5. Fold in peaches: Carefully fold the diced canned peaches into the batter to evenly distribute the fruit throughout the mixture.
  6. Bake the bread: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 65-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few crumbs but no wet batter.
  7. Cool the bread: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, remove it from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely to room temperature.
  8. Prepare the glaze: While the bread cools, mix the confectioners’ sugar with 2 tablespoons of reserved peach syrup in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more peach syrup if needed.
  9. Glaze and serve: Drizzle the peach glaze evenly over the cooled loaf. Slice the bread into 8 servings and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure the milk and egg are at room temperature to help the batter mix more evenly.
  • Do not overmix the batter after adding flour to keep the bread tender.
  • If you like a stronger peach flavor, adjust the amount of peach syrup in the glaze accordingly.
  • This bread keeps well stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a fresh fruit version, substitute canned peaches with fresh diced peaches, but reduce milk slightly due to extra moisture.
