Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus extra for the swirl
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream
  • 2 medium fresh peaches, peeled and pureed (about 1 cup or 240ml)
  • 1/3 cup (70g) packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for swirl)
  • 2 tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter, softened (for swirl)
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar, sifted (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh peach juice or puree (for glaze)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
  3. In a large bowl, combine granulated sugar and melted butter; stir until smooth.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Mix in vanilla extract, sour cream, and fresh peach puree until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
  6. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and softened butter until crumbly but cohesive to make the cinnamon swirl.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in two batches, folding gently with a spatula until just combined.
  8. Pour half the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half the cinnamon swirl mixture evenly over the batter.
  9. Pour the remaining batter on top and finish with the rest of the cinnamon mixture.
  10. Use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl the cinnamon topping through the batter, creating a marbled effect.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  12. While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, fresh peach juice or puree, and lemon juice until smooth to make the glaze.
  13. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  14. While still warm, drizzle the peach glaze over the loaf, letting it drip down the sides.

Notes

Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid excess moisture. If peach puree is watery, strain before adding to batter. Do not overmix the batter to keep bread tender. Swirl cinnamon mixture gently to maintain marbled effect. Check bread at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking. Glaze while bread is warm for best shine.
