I'm surprised at the cinnamon instead of nutmeg! I look forward to trying it, but will substitute the latter.

This is incredible. I get tired of banana bread so I wanted to fix something different. WOW!! This is moist and very peachy. Melted in our mouths. I took this to work and everyone raved about it and wanted the recipe. Thanks for another great recipe.

Delicious, super-moist bread. I saw some people didn't think it was peachy enough, so I mashed a very ripe peach and used the juice/pulp instead of the orange juice concentrate. I also added a streusel topping. The result was amazing!

Made this to serve for breakfast. Oh how wonderful. This turned out so moist. I think the orange juice really inhanced the peach flavor. Very peachy. I served this warm and spread just a smidge of butter on each slice. YUMMY!!

I had some fresh peaches lying around and so I wanted to use them up before they went bad. I gave this bread a try and so happy I did! It was super easy to make and was perfectly moist and tasty. I definitely want to try this with different fruits!

I used 1 tsp each baking soda and powder because I though1/2 tsp of soda wasn't enough. I also used a bit less cinnamon because other reviews suggested it was overpowering. I think my hot oven over cooked this bread , I checked at 55 min but it is a little dry and over done. Kind of bland tasting I thought the orange concentrate would help more than it did to add flavor. Maybe I will try it again and cook it a shorter amount of time

I made this with half the cinnamon and I didn't have orange juice concentrate - so I used 2 tablespoons of homemade seedless blackberry jam instead. I used 2 1/2 cups of chunks and slices of fresh peach, and the slices turned out really nice - like little pockets of peachy goodness. Next time I will use all slices. Overall, it turned out great, except that it was slightly overcooked when I baked for the time specified - next time I will take it out 5 minutes earlier.

Delish. I used sliced peaches instead of chopped (as suggested in other reviews). Also, instead of orange juice concentrate, I used fig preserves ( i think any preserves or jam would work.)

I have loads of Bartlett pears from my tree. I think I will substitute pears instead of peaches. Due to mild flavor will omit oj concentrate --maybe add more vanilla /bit of nutmeg. I think it should work.

Wonderful bread! I used a 29 oz. can of peaches instead of fresh, and 3 tablespoons of the juice instead of the orange juice, and had to bake it for 70 minutes, but it turned out beautifully! Will definately make this again!

I made a double batch of this wonderful bread. I used canned peaches and subbed applesauce for half of the butter. Very good recipe!
