Step-by-Step Instructions for Southern Peach Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Combine diced peaches with vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl until smooth.
  3. Gradually stir in flour, baking soda, and salt until just combined to avoid overmixing.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pans, filling them halfway.
  5. Bake mini loaves for 25-30 minutes and a large loaf for 50-55 minutes, performing the toothpick test to check for doneness.
  6. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
