These delightful muffins combine the juicy sweetness of summer peaches with a crunchy cinnamon-oat streusel topping. Perfect for a cozy morning breakfast or a vintage-inspired snack, they bring the nostalgic flavors of a classic peach cobbler into a portable, small-batch treat.
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup diced peaches (fresh or drained canned)
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup quick or rolled oats
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large ceramic bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients, pour in the wet mixture, and stir until just combined.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches using a spatula until evenly distributed.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, oats, and extra cinnamon, mixing with your fingers until the texture resembles wet sand.
- Fill each muffin cup three-quarters full, sprinkle generously with the streusel topping, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden.
Notes
For the best texture, ensure your ingredients like milk and butter are at room temperature before mixing to create a smoother batter. If you are using canned peaches, blot them thoroughly with a paper towel to remove excess syrup, which prevents the muffins from becoming too dense or soggy during the baking process.
