How to make this fresh fruit cake
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9×5-inch loaf pan, or similar.
Whisk together gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Beat oil, sugars, eggs, orange zest, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Add the mixture to the dry ingredients and mix. Add the cubed peaches and mix until well incorporated. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
Bake for 40-50 minutes or until cooked. Keep in mind that all ovens are different. To know if it’s ready, insert a toothpick into the center of the bread; it should come out clean, with no streaks of batter
Let cool before removing.
Store the cake covered at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator up to a week. You can freeze it in an air-tight container or freezer bag. It’s better to slice the bread before freezing it.
