Colt came home with the most amazing peaches the other day. They were so juicy they were running down my arm as I peeled them. Perfect for making Peach Crumb Muffins.

Tara from from Noshing With The Nolands had sent a message awhile back after she had a reader who had made my Banana Crumb Muffins I had shared on her site a few years back, and loved them so much she asked for a Peach Crumb Muffin recipe. 

It's my all time favorite peach muffin recipe. A soft tender cake like muffin with a coffee cake like crumb. They are a favorite way to start the day with my morning cup of coffee or tea.

Between the perfectly ripe peaches on the counter, and Tara's request I knew I had to share the recipe. 

Here's how to make Peach Crumb Muffins.
Flour, Granulated Sugar, and Salt in a mixing bowl for Peach Crumb Muffin Coffeecake topping.

For the crumb topping add to mixer:
  • 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
Mix until well combined.

Butter added to flour mixture for Coffeecake like crumb topping.

Add 1/4 cup Butter cut into half tablespoons. Mix until well combined, and crumbly.

The butter will no longer be visible and well combined. Remove to a small bowl, and set aside.

Egg added to beaten sugar and butter for Peach Muffins.

To make the soft cake like peach muffins beat together:
  • 1/3 cup Butter
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
Until light, and fluffy. Add 2 eggs, one at a time. Beat well between each addition.

Vanilla, Almond Extract, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, and Salt added to Peach Muffin batter in a stainless steel bowl.

Mix in:
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon Pure Almond Extract
  • 3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
Scrape sides of bowl as needed.

Flour and Sour Cream added to Peach Muffin batter in a stainless steel bowl.

Add:
  • 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose or Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
  • 3/4 cup Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
Mix just until combined scraping sides frequently.  Be careful not to over mix as the more the flour is mix it activates the gluten, and will lead to tougher dense muffins.


Chopped Peaches added to Muffin Batter in a stainless steel bowl.

Scrape down sides of bowl well, and fold in 1 1/3 cup Peeled Diced Ripe Peaches.

Really ripe peaches are the key to the most amazing Peach Crumb Muffins a few of my favorite tips I use are:
  1. My first clue when I'm out shopping for peaches is if they smell like peaches. I always rely on my senses when produce shopping whether it's peaches or strawberries, it should smell ripe. Produce that doesn't smell usually isn't as ripe.
  2. Peaches should have gorgeous deep tones of peach and reds when ripe. If the colors appear dull, or even light they are probably not ready to be enjoyed.
  3. Ripe peaches are slightly soft. It's pretty easy to tell when you touch the skin of the peach if it's still rock hard.
Peach Muffin Batter divided in a muffin pan.

Divide peach muffin batter evenly between 12 standard-sized muffin tin lined with muffin liners.

Press crumb topping between fingers to form large crumbs, and evenly distribute over the top of muffins.

Bake in a 350° preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, until lightly brown, and a toothpick inserted into the center of muffins comes out clean.

Remove to cooling rack from pan once cool enough to handle.

Wonderful Brunch muffin. I added 1/2 top cinnamon to the crumb topping. RAVE REVIEWS from 34 family members at the reunion. Definitely a KEEPER.

Yes, it should work fine. Just drain them well first. Thanks, Serena

My family said these were the best peach muffins I’ve ever made - and I’ve made plenty. Will be making more to freeze after my Peach Truck peaches are ready. Yum!!
