Peach Oatmeal Quick Bread

Submitted by Graciebonica

"This is another "oldie" recipe from my card file. I think it is a reasonably healthy bread, as the oil content is low, and it used whole wheat flour. This bread has a delicate flavor, and is good toasted. If you like, you may add a half-cup of chopped nuts."
