Peaches 'N Cream Muffins

Recipe from Two Peas and Their Pod

Servings: 6 large muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh peaches peeled and chopped
  • Cream cheese filling:
  • 6 tablespoons cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Cinnamon and sugar-for sprinkling on muffins before baking

Instructions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease well. Set aside.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Whisk in the sugar.
  • 3. In a separate medium bowl or in a large glass measuring cup, mix canola oil, egg, milk, and vanilla together. Use a fork or whisk and combine well.
  • 5. Incorporate the wet ingredients into flour mixture. Add slowly and gently stir, you don't want to over mix. The batter will be thick. Carefully fold in the peaches.
  • 6. In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix until creamy and smooth. Fill each muffin cup half way with batter. Next, add a small spoonful of cream cheese filling to each muffin cup. Cover the cream cheese filling with the remaining batter. Sprinkle each muffin with cinnamon and sugar.
  • 7. Bake muffins for 17-20 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Remove the muffins from the pan and let cool on a cooling rack.
