Storage

Since the muffins are a bit moist from the peaches store them covered with aluminum foil at room temperature up to 2 days. If you store it with plastic wrap it will get mushy. Or you can store them in an airtight container with a paper towel on the bottom of the container and a paper towel covering the top of the muffins before you placed the lid onto the container.

Materials

For the Streusel Topping

  • 6 tbsp Gluten-Free Flour can sub in regular flour
  • 6 tbsp Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp Butter, unsalted, melted

For The Muffins

  • 1/4 cup Butter, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/4 cup + 2 Tbsp Greek Yogurt, plain
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Gluten-Free Flour can sub in regular flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Peaches, peeled and chopped into small pieces

Instructions

Make The Streusel Topping

  • In a small bowl combine the flour, sugar, and the cinnamon. Mix together.
  • Melt the butter then add it to the flour mixture, stir to combine then set it aside.

Make The Muffins

  • Pre-heat the oven to 370°F.
  • Line the muffin pan with muffin liners.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy.
  • Add in the yogurt, egg, and the vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt, then add it to the butter mixture. Blend well.
  • Add the peaches and 1/4 cup of the streusel topping to the batter and gently stir until the peaches are incorporated into the batter.
  • Fill each muffin liner then top with the streusel topping.
  • Bake for 25-30 or until tester come out clean or with a few crumbs.
  • Remove the muffins from the pan and place on cooling rack to let them cool.

Notes

I like to use jumbo muffin liners as they hold the streusel topping in place. This recipe makes approx. 8 muffins using the jumbo liners. It will make more if you use the regular size liners. Place the muffin pan onto a baking sheet as a safeguard for any batter spillover.
Store at room temperature up to 2 days.
 I recommend storing with aluminum foil to prevent them from getting soggy. You can also store them in a sealed container, just place a paper towel onto the bottom of the container, then place the muffins over the paper towel. Place another paper towel over the top of the muffins before you seal the container shut.
