How to Make Peach Pecan Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8x2 inch loaf pan.
- Drain one 15-ounce can of sliced peaches, reserving 1/4 cup of the syrup.
- Finely chop 1 cup of the drained peaches and set aside.
- In a blender, combine the remaining drained peaches (about 1 1/2 cups), 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter or margarine, 2 large eggs, the reserved 1/4 cup peach syrup, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Cover and blend until completely smooth.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar.
- Add the blended peach mixture to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in 1 cup chopped pecans and the reserved 1 cup of chopped peaches.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the bread is still warm, spread a generous layer of peach preserves over the top.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
