Description
These delightful muffins transform the classic southern cobbler into a portable breakfast masterpiece featuring juicy peach chunks and a shattered cinnamon-sugar crust. Perfect for small-batch baking, they offer a rich, buttery crumb that elevates any morning routine.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups peaches, diced
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin.
- Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula just until no streaks of flour remain.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches and scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
- Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small dish and sprinkle it generously over each muffin.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until golden, then let rest in the pan for 5 minutes before cooling on a rack.
Notes
To ensure your muffins achieve that bakery-style dome, avoid over-mixing the batter which can lead to a dense and rubbery texture. Using room temperature eggs and milk will help the melted butter incorporate smoothly without clumping.
