Instructions

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare the Pan

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Step 3: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add eggs, vanilla extract, and sour cream (or Greek yogurt), mixing until combined.

Step 4: Combine & Fold in Peaches

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently.
Fold in the diced peaches (and nuts if using).

Step 5: Bake the Peach Bread

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 6: Cool & Serve

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature!

Notes

Use Ripe Peaches – Juicier peaches give the best flavor and texture.
Don’t Overmix – Stir just until combined for a soft, tender loaf.
For Extra Moisture – Add an extra tablespoon of sour cream.
For a Crunchy Top – Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before baking.
