Peach Cobbler Muffins
Amy Faries • Mar 03, 2020
Moist golden brown peach muffins with a crisp and crumbly streusel topping that will be sure to leave you with your mouth watering! Tastes EXACTLY like a warm peach cobbler! Also the perfect recipe to let your little ones help you out with.
Helping Hands
For these tasty treats I enlisted my nephew, Aiden, to help me make the best peach cobbler muffins out there. It was the week before going back to school and I had both he and lily with me for the entire week. When I asked him what he wanted to do with his good ole Aunt his response was "well what are we going to bake?" (he knows me so well). We decided muffins were delicious and nice and easy to make.
Peaches are such a delicious refreshing fruit and I love when I get any chance to bake with them. When I think of peach cobbler I think of comfort. Cobblers are always so warm and fruity that it always heats my belly right up. But lets face it, this is not something me and my fellow Floridians necessarily want during the intensely hot summer months. It is hot! Seriously, it is intensely hot! Let me give you an idea of how awful this scorching heat is. Today our high is 95 degrees, 90% humidity, with it feeling like 105 degrees. Death I tell you! Instant death! Ok... I may be a little dramatic but it is so incredibly hot over this way guys. What better way to not die of heat stroke and also eat a delicious and sweet comfort food?
We start off with our diced up peaches
Gently fold in our dry mixture with our diced up peaches
Cut in your butter for your crumbly topping
Use your fingers to make sure the butter is at the right consistency
Ingredients
Muffins:
1 1/4 cup flour
1 1/2 Tsp baking powder
1/2 Tsp salt
2/3 cup white sugar
2 cups fresh peaches diced (about 3 peaches)
1/2 cup whole milk
1 egg (beaten)
1/4 vegetable oil
Crumbly Topping:
1/2 cup flour
1/2 white sugar
1/8 tsp cinnamon
6 TBS cold butter
Let those little hands help you to spoon on your leftover peaches
The last step is to place your crumbly topping all over your muffins
Make sure to enlist those little hands to help you out with this bake because it is so easy and fun to make! If they are old enough you can even let them help you cut in the butter using two butter knives. If your young ones are small, like Lily (2 yrs old), don't worry they can still help! Helping to mix is always a fun way to get your really little ones to help out. I usually put a towel on the ground, sit with Lily on the floor, and guide her in stirring. They can also help by scooping the extra peaches and crumble on top of your muffins before baking. Lets not forget the most important part that any one of your kids can partake in though....the taste test!! This is MY favorite part at least.
Instructions
Muffins
-Step 1:
Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line your 12 cup muffin tin.
-Step 2:
In a medium size bowl use a whisk to mix together your flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
-Step 3:
Using a rubber spatula gently fold in your peaches (save about 3/4 cup for topping) and coat them in the dry mixture.
-Step 4:
Add in the milk, beaten egg, and oil. Slowly stir together until the flour is gone. (Make sure to not over stir)
-Step 5:
Pour the batter into the muffin tins are fill to about 3/4 full (no more than this).
-Step 6:
Put the remaining peaches you saved and spoon them on top of your batter.
Crumbly Topping:
-Step 1:
Mix together your flour, sugar, and cinnamon.
-Step 2:
Add your cold butter into the dry mixture and start to cut it in. After your butter pieces are smaller use your fingers to break up the butter and incorporate it into the dry mix. You want this to resemble small crumbs.
-Step 3:
Top your muffins with this mixture. Place them in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown and your toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
**Eat immediately or store in an air tight container for up to 3 days**
