Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large peaches (diced into 1/2-inch pieces, approximately 2 cups)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil (olive oil or canola oil)
- 1/3 cup plain or vanilla yogurt
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar (for streusel)
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter
- 2 tsps baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (for streusel)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Create a streusel topping by mixing flour, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut cold butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside for later use.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
- Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, including flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold most of the diced peaches into this mixture, keeping some aside for topping.
- Whisk eggs, yogurt, and oil together in a separate bowl until well blended. Carefully fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient mixture, stirring until just incorporated.
- Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with the batter. Scatter remaining peach pieces on top of each muffin.
- Sprinkle the prepared streusel topping generously over each muffin, ensuring even coverage.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Swap yogurt with dairy-free alternatives like coconut or almond yogurt to create a vegan-friendly version of these delightful muffins.
- Enhance nutritional value by substituting half the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for added fiber and a slightly nutty flavor.
- Prevent peach pieces from sinking during baking by tossing them lightly in flour before incorporating into the batter, ensuring even distribution throughout the muffins.
- Maximize freshness by storing muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer preservation.
