Peach Streusal Bread

Colorado + August = Delicious Palisade Peaches

Once again, I purchased a case of peaches from the local high school and love experimenting with new recipes. Daughter, Megan and I decided to make a peach bread but swapped out the glaze for a streusal topping. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! We added a bit of peach marmalade to the batter to intensify the peach flavor and it was wonderful.
