I was to be in the Okanogan Valley this week enjoying all the fresh fruit. However because of the fires I decided not to go. So in place of a trip I purchased fresh peaches and ate them fresh and in different recipes. My company and I enjoyed this recipe and I hope you do too.
Peach Bread
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup oil
1 egg
2/3 cup buttermilk or
milk with 1 tsp. vinegar added
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/4 cup wheat germ
2 cups diced peaches
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Combine sugar and oil. Beat in egg, milk and vanilla. Add the baking soda, powder, salt, spices and wheat germ to 2 cups of flour. Stir into the creamed mixture. Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup of flour over the peaches and fold into the batter along with the nuts. Pour into 2 small greased loaf pans. Bake at 350掳 for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
