Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter will be thick.
Gently fold in the cherry pie filling, ensuring that the cherries are evenly distributed without breaking them apart too much.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If making the optional glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle it over the cooled bread before serving.
Slice and serve your Cherry Pie Filling Bread. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
