๐Ÿ‘ Moist Peach Loaf Cake with Vanilla Glaze

๐Ÿ‘ Make the Peach Glaze

While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze:

In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and peach juice (or milk) until smooth and pourable. If the glaze is too thick, add more juice a teaspoon at a time. If itโ€™s too thin, add more sugar.

Once the cake is cool, drizzle the glaze generously over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before slicing.

๐Ÿ’ก Expert Tips & Variations

  • Storage: Keep leftover cake at room temperature, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or stored in an airtight container. It stays fresh for 3โ€“4 days.

  • Freezing: You can freeze this cake (without glaze) for up to 3 months. Let it cool completely, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then place it in a freezer-safe zip-top bag. To thaw, leave it in the fridge overnight and glaze before serving.

  • Use Fresh Peaches: If in season, peel and chop 3โ€“4 ripe peaches instead of canned. Youโ€™ll get even more fresh fruit flavor.

  • Skip the Loaf Pan: This batter works in an 8ร—8-inch square baking dish. Just reduce the bake time to about 30โ€“45 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.

  • Add-Ins: Sprinkle in a handful of chopped pecans or slivered almonds for a bit of crunch. A dash of cinnamon in the batter can add a warm, cozy flavor twist.

๐Ÿ“ Notes

  • Donโ€™t skip lining the pan if you want neat, easy slices and fuss-free cleanup.

  • Use reserved peach juice from the canโ€”it enhances the glaze with natural fruity sweetness.

  • Want a touch of brightness? Add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter or glaze for a citrusy finish.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Serve It Up

Serve your Peach Loaf Cake slightly warm or at room temperature. It pairs beautifully with:

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream

  • A dollop of whipped cream

  • Fresh peach slices on top

  • A drizzle of caramel or honey
