Ingredients

Scale

Muffin Base

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or dairy-free)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh or canned peaches, diced

Topping

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until fully combined to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, melted unsalted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir just until combined. Avoid over-mixing; some lumps are acceptable to keep the muffins tender.
  5. Fold in Peaches: Gently fold the diced peaches into the batter, distributing them evenly to ensure each muffin has a juicy fruit burst.
  6. Fill Muffin Pan: Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
  7. Add Topping: In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and brown sugar, then generously sprinkle this mixture over the muffin batter for a sweet, flavorful crust.
  8. Bake Muffins: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the muffins turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool Muffins: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days or refrigerate for up to a week to maintain freshness.
  • Reheat muffins in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes to restore warmth and moisture or use a microwave briefly, avoiding overheating to prevent rubbery texture.
  • Substitute peaches with other fruits like blueberries or strawberries for variety.
  • Use almond milk or other non-dairy milk alternatives for a lactose-free version.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins soft and fluffy.
  • Monitor baking time closely to avoid overbaking and dryness.
