Fresh Peach Loaf

Fresh Peach Loaf-Enjoy our juicy fresh organic peaches! A moist and delicious gluten free treat that’s not overly sweet. Delicious for breakfast toasted with a little butter!

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups chopped peaches, skin on

1 1/2 cups gluten free flour

3/4 cup sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/8 tsp salt

¼ tsp cinnamon

2 large eggs

1 cup milk or non-dairy milk

1 tbsp lemon juice

Zest from 1 lemon

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS:

-Preheat the oven to 350º F.

-Chop the peaches and put aside. In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and whisk to blend.

-In a smaller bowl, add your wet ingredients and whisk.

-Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and add the peach slices.

-Mix the wet and dry ingredients until just barely mixed. Overmixing will deflate your cake and it will turn out dense.

-Pour the batter into a greased bread loaf tin. (can also divide to make mini loaves)

-Bake for 45 minutes. Test doneness with a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done baking. If there is batter, or crumbs, on the toothpick, it will need to bake longer.

-Allow the cake to cool before eating!
