Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix until smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, to the sugar and butter mixture, whisking well after each addition.
Stir in the bourbon and vanilla extract until evenly incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in batches, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined without overmixing.
Gently fold in the diced peaches and chopped pecans (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Optional: For an extra touch of sweetness, brush the top of the bread with a mixture of 1 tablespoon bourbon and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar while it is still warm.
