While they’re delicious enough to serve for a holiday or special occasion, Peach Muffins are also wonderfully easy to make. After combining the batter, you just bake the muffins until golden brown. The total time for the recipe is just 30 minutes, and they’ll come out moist, buttery, and soft.
MAKE-AHEAD PEACH MUFFINS
If you want to make these muffins ahead of time, they freeze very well. It’s especially great if you make a double batch of the muffins. Then you can serve some the day of and save the rest for up to 6 months.
- Start by flash freezing the Peach Muffins for an hour while still in the muffin tin.
- Once they’re frozen solid, transfer the muffins to a freezer bag. Flash freezing them will ensure they don’t freeze together.

TIPS FOR MAKING PEACH MUFFINS
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and then line the muffin tin with paper muffin liners.
- Wet Ingredients: Add the sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to a large bowl or stand mixer. If it’s in a stand mixer set the mixer to its lowest speed and mix until smooth. It will only take about 30 seconds. Mixing it by hand may take longer, just stir until smooth.
- Dry ingredients: Slowly sift in the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to the wet ingredients. Mix them into the wet ingredients. Be careful not to overmix at this step. Keep the mixer on its lowest speed. Finally, fold in the chopped peaches.
- Bake: Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin liners to about ¾ full. Put in the oven for 20-22 minutes. Stick a toothpick in the center of one of the muffins to make sure they’re done baking. If it comes out without any batter on the toothpick then the muffins are done baking.

Delicious, I just added some blueberries and used just 1/2 cup of brown sugar and no white sugar. It was the perfect amount of sugar and healthier for a toddler to eat. Thank you!
I followed the recipe exactly. These muffins are absolutely delicious. Thank you ?
Delish! I made them today easy to follow
So delicious!
I did make slight change, I had a jar of peach jam that didn’t seal so I added that instead of peaches..so good!
I omitted 1/2 cup sugar as the jam already has sugar
Definitely be making this again
So good! I’ll definitely be making this again. I substituted oil with bananas.
These muffins are good. I didn’t have vanilla extract and they were still slightly sweet because of the fresh peaches. I will definitely make them again.
Can you make this in a loaf pan as a bread ? An can I use self rising flour so I don’t have to use the baking soda ? Going to try this for our family week vacation to the lake for everyone to snack on… it looks delicious
Yes to both questions and let us know how it turns out. Hope you enjoy your vacation!
These are wonderful! Used fresh Texas peaches! I did try to freeze a couple, hope that works, they are so moist, I’m not sure. But the taste and texture is awesome!
Very good, I used frozen Colorado Palisade peaces from last years season and they came out great. I will definitly make this recipe again.

Outstanding. Love the recipe. Nice and moist. We had a bumper crop of peaches last year and I used this recipe to make a batch of peach muffins as we had leftover from our peach jam.
Excellent recipe. Will definitely make again.
I have home canned peaches can I use these?
Yes, drain well and dry with paper towels first. 🙂
Can you use whole wheat flour and if you out sugar for maple syrup how much?
I’m sure you can use whole wheat flour, as for the maple syrup, I’m not too sure how that would affect the recipe.
Husband loves the muffins.
I used Maple Syrup and coconut oil and my dry ingredients was 1 1/2 cup bisquick.
