Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s make it together! Follow these cozy steps to create your Delicious Peach Cobbler Muffins:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, 1 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold them together gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Gently fold in the diced peaches, allowing their sweet juices to infuse the batter.
- In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour. Stir in a few tablespoons of melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs—this will be your crumble topping.
- Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Sprinkle the crumble topping generously over the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Delicious Variations to Try
