Detailed Directions and Instructions
Prep the Oven and Muffin Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk them together until well mixed.
Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and egg until thoroughly combined.
Blend Wet and Dry Ingredients
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir using a spatula or wooden spoon just until combined. Be cautious not to overmix; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.
Add the Peaches
Gently fold in diced peaches into the muffin batter until evenly distributed.
Fill Muffin Cups
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup approximately two-thirds full.
Prepare for Baking
If desired, sprinkle additional diced peaches or a sprinkle of sugar on top for extra sweetness and visual appeal.
Bake the Muffins
Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 18-20 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the Muffins
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Storage Instructions
Store your peach cobbler muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
Freezing Tips
Muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container.
Substitutions
You can use fresh or canned peaches, but if using canned, be sure to drain them well to avoid extra moisture in the batter.
Serving Suggestions
These muffins are excellent served warm, possibly with a pat of butter or drizzled with honey for added flavor.
