Description
A recipe for moist muffins that taste like peach cobbler.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped fresh or canned peaches, drained if canned
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (for topping)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces (for topping)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in the chopped peaches gently.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, cold butter pieces, and cinnamon. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the sugar and flour until a coarse, crumbly mixture forms.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly over the batter in each muffin cup.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- If using fresh peaches, ensure they are ripe for the best flavor.
- For extra flavor, you can add 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg to the muffin batter.
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
