Bake individual muffins that capture the flavor of classic peach cobbler, complete with a moist crumb and a buttery brown sugar streusel topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh or canned peaches, drained if canned
  • For the Streusel Topping:
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 3/4 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, combine the melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Gently fold in the chopped peaches.
  6. Prepare the streusel topping: In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter using your fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Sprinkle a generous amount of the streusel topping over the top of each muffin.
  9. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • If you use fresh peaches, ensure they are ripe for the best flavor. Peel and chop them before measuring.
  • For a richer flavor, substitute buttermilk for regular milk in the batter.
  • You can add 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg to the streusel topping for extra warmth.
