  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 15 oz can sliced peaches, drained and diced

Instructions

  • Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a standard bread loaf pan.

  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk, until just combined.
  • Fold in Peaches: Gently fold the diced peaches into the batter to evenly distribute the fruit.

  • Cool and Serve: Let the loaf cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a stronger cinnamon flavor, feel free to increase the amount of cinnamon.
