Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the diced peaches and chopped pecans, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve the Peach Pecan Bread as is, or toasted with a bit of butter or cream cheese for an extra indulgence!
