Description
Peach Pie Cruffins are a delightful combination of flaky pastry and sweet peach filling, perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches and ground cinnamon until evenly distributed.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
- Sprinkle a little brown sugar on top of each cruffin for added sweetness and crunch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cruffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- For a twist, try adding a teaspoon of almond extract for a nutty flavor.
- Substitute the peaches with blueberries or raspberries for a berry version.
- Consider adding a cream cheese filling by mixing 4 oz of softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup of sugar and a splash of vanilla, then swirl it into the batter before baking.
