It is PEACH season and so it is all things peaches at our house. Hannah has been experimenting with all kinds of different peach recipes, and I have been loving it. She found a recipe on Pinterest and in her true form switched it up a bit.
- 2 peaches skinned and diced for muffin batter
- 1-2 peaches thinly sliced for bottom of muffin cup
- 1/3 c. butter for batter
- 2 T. butter divided for muffin cup bottoms
- 6 t. brown sugar
- 1 1/2 c. AP Flour
- 1 t. baking powder
- 1/2 t. baking soda
- 1/4 t. salt
- 2/3 c. sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 t. pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 c. buttermilk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray muffin pan with cooking spray. Divide the 2 tablespoons of butter per muffin cup. Add 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar to each muffin cup. Then add a few peach slices to the bottom of the muffin cup.
Muffin Mixture: In small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In mixing bowl beat together 1/3 cup butter and sugar together till creamy. Then add egg and vanilla extract and beat for additional 2-3 minutes or until white and fluffy. Add half the flour mixture and beat for 1 minute. Stir in buttermilk and beat for a minute. Then add the remaining flour mixture and mix till combined. Fold in diced peaches (about 1 cup). Divide into the muffin cups. Then sprinkle tops with a little brown sugar.
Bake 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
Cool for a few minutes and then carefully turn muffin pan upside down to remove the cakes.
ENJOY!
