Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with vegetable oil or butter and dusting it with flour.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, then whisk to aerate.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Gently fold in diced fresh peaches until evenly distributed in the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 55-60 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. For the glaze, mix powdered sugar, melted butter, diced peaches, and vanilla extract until smooth.
