Since the window that peaches are in season is often so short, we decided to go with canned peaches so it can be made all year! If you happen to have fresh peaches on hand we highly encourage you to use them. You’ll want to dice the peaches into small pieces so your bread will cook as evenly as possible (and you’ll get a juicy burst of peach in every bite!). This recipe makes one very large loaf and you want to make sure it cooks through the center.
Whether you’re entertaining or just baking up a treat for yourself, this easy loaf is sure to please. The tang from the cream cheese is balanced beautifully with the sweet peaches. I love to heat up a slice to enjoy with my morning coffee and too often end up going back for a second slice. Keep the recipe handy because the first loaf will disappear before you know it!
