Peach Jam Bread Posted on 8 Aug 16:11 , 0 comments
This "bread" has the consistency of a cake made in a loaf pan. The peach flavor makes it extra special. You can eat it like a cake, with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop or whipped cream. Or, you can enjoy it with a smear of cream cheese or butter. The recipe was created by dessert maven and author Liz Horne, creator of the blog "Sweet Things by Lizzie"
