Peach Cobbler Muffins

 We have lots of peaches in Tennessee now. I have made peach pie, peach cobbler, peach crisp and peach ice cream. I have some less than ideal peaches and wanted to whip up some peach cobbler muffins. Muffins are so delicious out of the oven. And the grandchildren love them.

Start with peeling and cubing the peaches in small pieces. Toss them into some brown sugar and toss them around a little to coat.

When you make muffins, mix them as little as possible. This ensures a light muffin. I mix my muffins by hand to avoid over mixing. 

They are absolutely delicious and I recommend serving them immediately, that is when they are the best.

3/4 t. baking powder

In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and sugar. Whisk to to make sure the ingredients are throughly mixed.

In a separate bowl, add buttermilk, oil, egg and both extracts. Gently whisk the ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.

Add peaches very carefully and fold into the batter.

With an ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
