Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray bottom only of 9x5- or 8x4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix sugar and butter; beat until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Add buttermilk and eggs; blend well. (Mixture will appear curdled.)
2 In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Add to buttermilk mixture; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter into pan.
3 Bake 9x5-inch pan 50 to 65 minutes, 8x4-inch pan 55 to 75 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Loosen edges of bread; cool in pan on cooling rack 15 minutes. Remove bread from pan; place on cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours. Wrap tightly, and store in refrigerator.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

This bread is a nice introduction to cardamom, a spice native to India. Cardamom's spicy ginger-like aroma warms the bread's sweet-tart lemon and cherry flavors.

Use dried cranberries or chopped dates in place of the dried cherries.

Bake this bread to have on hand for holiday entertaining. Let the bread cool completely and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap. Place the wrapped bread in a food storage plastic freezer bag and freeze. One hour before serving, slice the frozen bread and arrange it on a platter.

I have tried and many many many many recipes for peach coblber. Even Paula Dean, (love her to death) but this recipe is by far the best. This is the one that goes into my cookbook forever. Thanks for sharing this. Oh and I added a little twist to it also. I added a tablespoon of peach shnaaps to it. My family loved it. I mean my entire family. LOL. my mother is still talking about it and i made it over a month ago. thanks again
