I love making homemade quick bread. Not only is it relatively easy to make, there is nothing better than having fresh bread in the house. One of my favorites to make is banana bread. I love how banana bread is always so moist and I love the flavor that it gives to the bread. Also I really like how versatile it is and how it can be combined with other flavors. I always try to bake with fresh fruits that are in season. Since peaches are in season now, I decided that I should make something with them. Previously I have combined a number of different fruits with banana bread to make really great breads, and decided to combine peaches with the flavors of banana bread to create a Peach Banana Bread.
This Peach Banana Bread was so delicious and was one of my favorite types of banana bread that I have made. The bananas and peaches make the bread so moist and taste great combined together. I love the flavors of peaches and bananas in every bite. This is great for a breakfast, snack, or even dessert. The great thing is that you can make this bread on the weekend and have breakfast for the entire week, that is if you don’t eat it all first. I hope you enjoy this fantastic and delicious bread.Ingredients
