Peach Bread

Peach Bread

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 cup sugar

1 T baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh peaches

1 T lemon juice

1/3 cup canola oil 

1/3 cup milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 eggs

1/3 cup chopped pecans (Optional) ( I did not use)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a loaf pan.

2. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine the peaches and lemon juice. Pour the oil, milk, vanilla, and eggs into a two-cup measuring cup.

3. Add the oil-milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Fold in the peaches and pecans, and then pour into the loaf pan.

4. Bake 55-60 minutes until a tester comes out clean.

***If you find the dough to be too thick add a touch more milk. I am not a fan of nutmeg so next time I will add a lot less or leave it out and add cinnamon.
