Peach cobbler muffins are delicious summer treat with a perfect crumble topping and cinnamon flavor. They are best with fresh peaches during peach season but you can also use frozen or canned peaches so you can enjoy them year-round.
If you use canned peaches make sure to drain them, frozen chopped peaches do not thaw and fresh peaches are better without peel for best texture.
What I love most about this delicious muffins is their tender, moist texture and abundance of juicy peaches in every bite.They are perfect for breakfast or snack. I hope you’ll enjoy in this simple recipe.

How to make it crumbly?
The trick is in adding small pieces of cold butter in a mixture by rubbing it in after all other ingredients are mixed together, this will give the streusel topping crumbly texture otherwise it may turn into sticky dough.
How to prepare muffins?

In a large bowl add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and sugar and whisk together until combined then add diced peaches reserving about 3/4 cup for topping the muffins, and stir to coat. In a medium bowl whisk eggs, yogurt and oil and stir that mixture into dry mixture until just combined.
Assemble muffins : Portion the batter out into the muffin cups evenly (about 3/4 full). Add the remaining chunks of peaches on top and a spoonful of the streusel topping in each cup.
Bake for about 18-20 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of muffin comes out clean, pay attention not to over-bake them so they keep moist inside.When done remove muffins to a rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
