How to Make Peach Cobbler Muffins
Follow along with our pictures and step-by-step instructions to make these easy Peach Cobbler Muffins! Check out the tips and tricks below. Let’s get started!
FIRST STEP: Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine flour, salt, and baking powder in a small bowl and set it aside.
SECOND STEP: In a large mixing bowl, beat or whisk together eggs, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, milk, and peach juice.
THIRD STEP: Dump the dry ingredients into the milk and egg mixture in the large bowl and stir gently, just until combined. Do not overmix.
Pro Tip
Too many peaches or excess juice in the batter will cause the muffins to take much longer to cook. The Peach Muffin recipe may also remain too wet. Be sure to cut the pieces small enough.
FOURTH STEP: Drain the peaches, making sure you have added the two tablespoons of juice to the batter before discarding (see step two above).
FIFTH STEP: Dice the peaches into very small pieces. Large chunks will weigh down the batter and add too much moisture.
SIXTH STEP: Toss one cup of cubed peaches with one tablespoon of flour and fold them into the muffin batter.
Pro Tip
Make sure you are measuring the one cup of peaches once chopped, as they will condense down. Don’t measure the peach halves as one cup.
Tossing the peaches in flour will help keep them suspended in the batter, giving you a more even distribution.
SEVENTH STEP: Divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups lined with paper liners or sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Use a large ice cream scoop to fill each cavity about three-quarters of the way full.
EIGHTH STEP: Prepare the streusel by combining the flour, sugar, and cold cubed butter in a small bowl.
Use a fork or pastry blender to cut in the butter until the mixture forms a crumble.
NINTH STEP: Sprinkle a few pieces of diced peaches over the top of the muffins. Then sprinkle streusel over the tops of the muffins.
TENTH STEP: Bake at 425°F for six minutes.
Turn down the heat to 350°F and continue baking for 15 to 18 minutes more until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
ELEVENTH STEP: Cool the muffins in the muffin tin for five minutes. Remove the muffins to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Pro Tip
Do not leave the muffins to cool in the baking pan. The heat from the pan will overcook them.
