How to Make Almond Peach Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon almond extract, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and diced fresh peaches and ½ cup sliced almonds.
  6. Fill the prepared muffin cups ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
