Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (for streusel)
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed (for streusel)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for streusel)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Oven and Tin Preparation
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin thoroughly with butter or cooking spray, or line it with paper liners to ensure the muffins do not stick.
  2. Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 2 cups of flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until the mixture is uniform and free of lumps.
  3. Step 3: Whisk Wet Ingredients
    In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the egg lightly. Stir in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the liquids are fully combined.
  4. Step 4: Mix the Batter
    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon just until the flour disappears. Be careful not to overmix, as this leads to tough muffins.
  5. Step 5: Fold in the Fruit
    Gently fold the diced peaches into the batter. Ensure they are evenly distributed without crushing the fruit pieces too much.
  6. Step 6: Prepare the Streusel Topping
    In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, 1/3 cup flour, and cinnamon. Using a fork or a pastry blender, cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture looks like coarse, sandy crumbs.
  7. Step 7: Fill the Muffin Cups
    Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Generously sprinkle the streusel topping over the top of each muffin, pressing it down very lightly.
  8. Step 8: Bake and Cool
    Place the tin in the center of the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack.
