Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups diced fresh peaches (about 2 medium peaches)
  • Cinnamon sugar topping:
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease your muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  3. Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar into the dry mix.
  4. Add the eggs, Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Avoid over-mixing; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Gently fold in the diced peaches, being careful not to mash them. Drain excess juice if peaches are very juicy.
  6. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Mix the cinnamon sugar topping by combining granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle generously over each muffin.
  8. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
  9. Let muffins rest in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough muffins. Drain excess juice from peaches if very ripe or frozen. Use room temperature eggs for better mixing. If topping browns too fast, tent with foil. Muffins can be stored at room temperature for 2 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
