Equipment

  • 9×5-inch loaf pan
  • mixing bowls
  • whisk
  • pastry cutter
  • toothpick

Ingredients
  

Crumb Topping

  • 2 Tablespoons packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter cold and cubed

Bread

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg at room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup sour cream (or plain yogurt/Greek yogurt), at room temperature
  • ½ cup whole milk at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract

Peach Layer

  • 1 and ½ cups peeled and chopped peaches (about 2 medium-large peaches)
  • 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • Make the crumb topping first. Mix the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together. Add the cold butter and using a pastry cutter or fork, cut butter into the brown sugar mixture until pea-size crumbles form. Refrigerate until ready to use in step 5.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg and granulated sugar together until combined. Whisk in the oil, sour cream, milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then whisk to completely combine. Avoid over-mixing. You will have about 3 cups of batter.
  • Mix the peach layer ingredients together.
  • Pour/spread half of the batter into prepared loaf pan. Spoon/spread the peaches evenly on top. Carefully pour/spread remaining batter evenly on top. Using a knife, swirl the batter down the center of the loaf pan. Evenly sprinkle crumb topping on top.
  • Bake the bread for 60-65 minutes, covering loosely with foil about halfway through to prevent the top from over-browning. Poke the center of the bread with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. Cool bread completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
  • Once completely cooled, slice and serve. The portions of bread around the peaches can taste gummy since peaches are so wet, but warming a slice up in the microwave for 10 seconds helps. Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for 1 day or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Notes

Store leftover bread covered at room temperature for 1 day or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
