Peach Muffins

This is a slight modification of this Allrecipes recipe for peach muffins. I made about a third of the recipe so I wouldn’t have too many muffins sitting around. We’re just starting to get really good peaches here in the Northwest, so this was a great use for some of them. I used a silicon cupcake pan to make the muffins in cute football shapes. They didn’t come out of the pan as nice as I would have liked, but they were still tasty!

Peach Muffins
Makes 6 muffins

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp baking soda
scant ½ tsp salt
½ cup vegetable oil
1 egg
⅔ cup granulated sugar
1 cup peeled, pitted, and chopped peaches (about 1 peach)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a muffin pan with non-stick spray.

Mix together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, beat together the oil, egg, and sugar. Stir the two mixtures together until just combined. Fold in the peaches. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups.

Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when stuck into the middle of a muffin. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a rack to finish cooling.
