Peach Cobbler Muffins

When the firemen sell their peaches, I am always looking for new recipes to try out. I found this recipe in my search and it is definitely one that I am going to be making again. I love a good muffin - they are awesome for snack, a treat for the kids or even a special breakfast. These were right up my alley and the streusel topping wasn't too over the top that I felt they were super unhealthy! These are on my to make again list when the peaches ripen again!

Peach Cobbler Muffins
(recipe found at barbarabakes.com)

MUFFINS
2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup milk
2 cups fresh peaches, diced (about 2 large peaches)

STREUSEL TOPPING
4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons vegetable oil

In a small bowl, whisk together sugar and flour. Add oil and mix together until fully incorporated and you have a sandy texture. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or vegetable oil or line with paper muffin liners. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt and set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, vanilla and milk. Add flour mixture and stir until just combined. Gently stir in peaches. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full with muffin batter. Don't over fill. Sprinkle muffins with topping that you set aside earlier. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. When muffins are done, cool for a few minutes in the muffin pan before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
