Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 cups ripe peaches, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for tossing peaches)
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk the wet ingredients: melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and eggs until well combined.
Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the bread dense.
In a small bowl, toss the diced peaches with the 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent the peaches from sinking to the bottom of the loaf during baking.
Gently fold the floured peaches into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle coarse sugar on top for added texture and sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy with a dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, or simply on its own!
