Farmer Boy Recipe - Peaches & Cream Loaf

Still celebrating "National Peach Month" with this recipe.  Since the peaches are ripe now and since the weather is so hot, I came up with this recipe for making in a bread machine - that way the oven doesn't have to heat up the whole place!

Ingredients:

• 1/4 Cup of heavy cream, or half and half
• 1 large egg
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons of canola oil
• 3 Tablespoons of sugar
• 1/2 Cup of old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
• 1 1/2 Cups of fresh peaches, pitted, peeled and chopped
• 3 1/2 Cups of bread flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons of yeast

Directions: In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, cream, oil and sugar.  Whisk the mixture, till fluffly.  Add this to your bread machne.  Add the prepared peaches, then the oats, nutmeg, and salt; followed by the flour.  Top off with the yeast and let 'er go!  Setting should be for a 1 1/2 lb. loaf of basic white bread, medium or light crust setting. *Note: check after 15 minutes of kneading to be sure a smooth ball is formed & adjust with flour or water as necessary.

I hope you'll make this loaf and then leave a comment her for all of us. Thanks.
You'd better copy this one for using during the winter - yes, you can use canned peaches! (less the juice)
I like to top a slice, buttered, then topped with powdered sugar or cream cheese, whipped up with heavy cream! Yum!
