Print Recipe

A delightful loaf of warm, freshly baked peach bread, infused with sweet peaches and almond extract, perfect for summer days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large peaches (about 300g, peeled and chopped)
  • ½ tbsp lemon juice
  • ¾ tsp pure almond extract
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1–1 ½ tsp cinnamon (adjust to your liking)
  • ⅛ tsp salt (optional)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted & cooled)
  • ½ cup milk (room temperature)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with butter or oil.
  3. Peel and chop the peaches into bite-sized pieces, toss with lemon juice and a sprinkle of sugar, and set aside.
  4. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, sugar, and milk until smooth.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; gently fold in peaches last.
  7. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve warm with whipped cream or butter. Pairs well with ice cream or fresh fruit toppings.
