Step-by-Step Instructions for Sweet Peach Bread
  1. Prepare the Peaches: Dice fresh peaches and toss with lemon juice, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Create a well in dry ingredients, add egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir gently until just combined, 1-2 minutes.
  4. Mix Until Combined: Stir until no visible flour streaks remain, batter should be thick and slightly lumpy.
  5. Fold in Peaches: Carefully fold peaches into the batter without crushing them.
  6. Prepare for Baking: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C), grease a loaf pan, and pour batter into it.
  7. Bake: Bake for 55-65 minutes, checking for doneness at 55 minutes.
  8. Rest Before Slicing: Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
