Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Usually, this means liquids first: peach preserves, heavy cream, unsalted butter (melted), milk, and egg.
Add the all-purpose flour on top of the liquids, ensuring it completely covers the wet ingredients.
Add granulated sugar and salt to separate corners of the pan. Do not mix them in yet.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast. Ensure the yeast does not touch the liquids initially.
Place the pan into the bread machine and select the 'Sweet Bread' or equivalent setting. Ensure the crust color is set to your preference (light or medium recommended). Start the machine.
When the machine signals for 'add-ins' (usually during the kneading process), add the diced canned peaches. If your machine doesnโt have an 'add-in' signal, incorporate the peaches after about 15 minutes of kneading.
Allow the bread machine to complete the kneading, rising, and baking cycles. Avoid opening the lid during these processes to maintain proper temperature and humidity.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
