Ingredients

For the Muffins

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup chopped peaches divided (¾ cup and ¼ cup)
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Streusel Topping

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into small pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly combined.
  • Add ¾ cup of the chopped peaches to the dry ingredients and gently stir to coat the fruit.
  • Add the milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Using a rubber spatula, stir just until the dry ingredients are incorporated and no visible flour remains. Do not overmix.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each approximately ¾ full.
  • To prepare the streusel topping, combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Add the cold butter and work it into the mixture using your fingertips until coarse crumbs form.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of chopped peaches evenly over the muffin batter, followed by a generous portion of the streusel topping.
  • Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

To make these muffins gluten free, substitute the all-purpose flour in both the muffins and the streusel topping with a certified 1:1 gluten-free baking flour blend. Ensure all other ingredients, including baking powder and vanilla extract, are labeled gluten free. No additional adjustments are required.
