Spiced Peach Muffins
Ingredients
- 2 C. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 C. granulated sugar
- 1 Tbs. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1 dash ground mace
- 1 large egg, slightly beaten
- 8 oz. container peach yogurt
- 1/3 C. milk
- 1/3 C. vegetable oil
- 1/2 C. dried peaches, finely chopped
- Crunch Topping:
- 2 Tbs. all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbs. brown sugar
- 2 Tbs. chopped walnuts
- 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 2 Tbs. butter or margarine
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease bottoms of 12 muffin cups or line pans with paper muffin cups. In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and mace.
In a small bowl, mix egg, peach yogurt, milk and oil. Make a well with a spoon in the center of the flour mixture. Pour egg mixture and chopped dried peaches into the well. Stir until flour mixture is moistened; the batter should still maintain some lumps in it. Gently spoon batter into greased muffin pan cups, filling each 2/3 full.
Mix all ingredients for the crunch topping except for the butter; cut in butter or margarine until crumbly. Sprinkle each muffin with approximately 2 tsp. of the topping. Bake 20-23 minutes or until golden brown. Remove muffins from the pan and serve warm.
