Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, milk, oil, egg and vanilla.
3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold the peaches gently into the batter.
2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 cups diced peaches
Pour the bread batter into a greased 9"x5" bread pan. Bake at 350ºF for 55-60 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the bread should come out clean. Allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes, then remove the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, melted butter, diced peaches and extract in a small bowl. Mix until it is smooth. Add heavy cream only if needed to get the glaze to a drizzle consistency.
2 cups powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1/3 cup finely diced peaches, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk**
Once the bread is cool, spread the glaze on top of the bread. Slice and serve. Store the bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
