Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150g) packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups diced fresh ripe peaches (about 2 medium peaches)
  • 8 ounces (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup (120ml) sour cream
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) milk
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for glaze)
  • 1 egg (for cream cheese swirl)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Stir in sour cream.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
  7. Gently fold in diced peaches.
  8. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add brown sugar and one egg, beating until creamy.
  9. Pour half of the peach batter into the loaf pan. Dollop the cream cheese mixture evenly over the batter, then top with remaining batter. Swirl gently with a knife.
  10. Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Tent with foil after 40 minutes if top browns too fast.
  11. While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, brown sugar, and milk to make the glaze.
  12. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle the glaze on top.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to avoid toughness. Use firm, ripe peaches and drain excess juice if very juicy. Apply glaze while bread is warm but not hot. Tent with foil if top browns too quickly. The cream cheese swirl keeps the bread moist and adds flavor.
