Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together about 1 tablespoon of sugar and ¼ cup of almond flakes. Set this aside for topping the loaf.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175C/155C Fan). Grease and flour a standard sized loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, stir together 1 cup of the flour with the remaining ¾ cup sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and allspice.
- Add the butter, orange zest and orange juice to the flour mixture and beat with a handheld electric mixer (or a stand mixer) until well combined and light (about 2 minutes).
- Add the eggs and remaining flour, beating until just combined.
- Fold in the nectarines, blueberries and remaining flaked almonds.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin and sprinkle the almond-sugar mixture over the top.
- Bake in the centre of the pre-heated oven for about 1 hour, checking regularly after 50 minutes. Once a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean, the loaf is done.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes in the tin before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. The loaf is moist, so handle with care and wait until it has cooled to slice.
