Peach Muffin Ingredients
Flour: You will need 3 cups of all-purpose flour for this easy muffin recipe.
Cinnamon: Adding in 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon gives this treat a nice warm spiced flavor.
Baking soda: To help the muffins rise as they bake, use 1 teaspoon baking soda.
Salt: Add in 1 teaspoon of salt to help balance all the flavors in this muffin.
Vegetable oil: For added fats and moisture, use 1 1/4 cup of vegetable oil. To make these slightly healthier, you can also use half applesauce in lieu of oil.
Eggs: You need 3 eggs, lightly beaten, to give these muffins a fantastic soft texture.
Brown sugar: For a lovely sweet flavor, add in 1 cup of brown sugar.
Peaches: Using 2 cups of peeled, pitted, and chopped peaches makes these muffins taste absolutely amazing. This is equal to about 4 peaches.
Milk: Add in 2-3 tablespoons of milk. If your peaches are really ripe, they’ll be juicy and you won’t need as much milk.
Turbinado sugar: You will need 2-3 tablespoons of Turbinado [raw] sugar, to give these muffins even more amazing flavor.

Tips and Tricks for amazing muffins!
To help you create the most sensational and delicious muffins you have ever tasted, here are a few tips!
- One of the most important rules for making muffins is to not over mix the batter. You want to mix until just combined, try to resist the urge to stir the batter until it is lump free. For the best results, you want the batter to be a bit lump and thick.
- Another great tip to follow is mixing the wet and dry ingredients separately. This step helps prevents the batter from being over mixed. When you add the dry ingredients to the wet, each have already been mixed and you will not need to stir very much to combine them all together.
- After the muffins have been bake, be sure to let them cool in the muffin pan for about 5 minutes. This is a great rule to follow, especially if the muffins are not in a paper lines. Letting them cool will prevent them from falling apart as you remove them. But, remove them after the 5 minutes because they could get soggy in the pan if left to cool too long.
