Description
This bread is a Southern classic that tastes like it came straight from grandma’s kitchen. Moist peach-filled slices are topped with a warm pecan praline drizzle that seeps into every bite. I remember making this for church potlucks, where it never made it past the first break. It’s sweet, nutty, and downright irresistible.
Ingredients
Peach Bread:
½ cup vegetable (or olive) oil
2 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large peach, finely diced
½ cup pecans, chopped
1½ cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp sea salt
Pecan Praline Drizzle:
2 tbsp unsalted butter
½ cup pecans, chopped
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan.
In a bowl, mix oil, eggs, sugar, sour cream, and vanilla.
Stir in peaches and pecans.
In another bowl, sift flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet mixture.
Pour batter into the pan. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
For the Praline: In a saucepan, melt butter. Add pecans and toast for 1–2 mins. Stir in sweetened condensed milk and simmer gently until thickened.
Pour warm drizzle over cooled bread.
Notes
Moist, nutty, and soaked in praline goodness—this peach bread is Southern baking at its sweetest.
