Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar (light or dark, packed)
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Plain yogurt or sour cream
- 1.5 cups Peaches (fresh, peeled, and diced, or canned peaches, drained and diced)
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
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 mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the yogurt until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender bread texture.
Fold in the diced peaches and chopped nuts (if using).
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the loaf pan from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve as is, or with a dollop of butter or cream cheese for extra indulgence!
