Easy Peach Muffins

Peach Muffins are easy to make, taste amazing, and only require two large peaches. The batter is full of ripe peach chunks with hints of vanilla and cinnamon. Each muffin has a large risen top that can support additional peach slices.

If you’re completely peach obsessed in the summer like I am, you need to try these muffins. They’re so simple to make, you basically just stir everything together. First, whisk the dry ingredients in one bowl. Then the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.  Finally combine them all with a little stirring and fold in your peach chunks. No need for electric mixers, just a bowl a hand whisk and tada muffin batter.

For this recipe I used large muffin cups, which control the shape. You can switch to small paper cups for a larger domed top. Each muffin is sprinkled with a mixture of sugar in the raw sugar and cinnamon for a little crunch. I added the peach slice halfway through baking to prevent over crisping.

This peach muffin recipe is perfect for a lazy Sunday morning breakfast in bed. I paired them with peach tea, but they also go great with milk and coffee.

Reasons Why You Should Make Peach Muffins:

• Full of fresh peach flavor
• Ready to eat in 25 min or less
• Perfect breakfast muffin to enjoy at home or on the go
• Stay fresh in the fridge for 2-3 days (wrap in plastic wrap)
• Can be frozen and enjoyed later (individually wrapped in plastic, lasts up to 3 months)

Substitutions:

1. Almond milk can be swapped for regular milk
2. Blueberries or Cherries can be used instead of Peaches, Both pair well with cinnamon and vanilla
