Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (113 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced (about 2 medium peaches)
  • 1 cup (120 g) chopped pecans, toasted
  • ½ cup (120 g) plain Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Toast chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from heat and cool.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  6. Mix in plain Greek yogurt until combined.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in batches, stirring gently just until combined.
  8. Carefully fold in diced peaches and toasted pecans, being gentle to keep peach chunks intact.
  9. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, starting to check at 50 minutes by inserting a toothpick into the center. It is done when toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs but no raw batter.
  11. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Toast pecans before adding to the batter to enhance flavor and crunch. Fold peaches gently to avoid sogginess. Tent with foil if bread browns too quickly. Use room temperature ingredients for best texture. Start checking doneness at 50 minutes with a toothpick.
