Directions
Peach Ricotta Mini Loaves, I am a great fan of my mini loaf pans, and so adapted this recipe I found while watching the Sugar tv show to make mini loaves So cute! (And perfect for passing along to friends and neighbours, too ) You’ll notice the lack of spice; the idea is for the peach flavour to come through, but feel free to add some cinnamon or nutmeg if you wish , These are tasty little cakes The peaches on the top are a nice hit of flavor I would highly recommend NOT skipping the drying off the canned peach slices part I did skip it and I ended up with doughy undercooked spots under the peach slices I also didn’t have turbino sugar so I just used regular granulated
