Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup butter 1 stick
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup milk
  • 15 oz sliced peaches drained and diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 1 large or 2 small loaf pans.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add sugar, eggs, and lemon zest and beat until light and fluffy.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with milk. Stir just until combined. Fold in the peaches.
  • Pour batter into prepared loaf pan(s) and bake for 50–55 minutes for a large loaf or 45–50 minutes for two smaller loaves, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let the loaf cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

If using fresh peaches instead of canned, peel and dice about 2 medium peaches. You may want to lightly toss them in flour to prevent sinking.
