Yogurt Peach Muffins


Today was a rain day and a good opportunity to do some baking . I was craving something sweet for afternoon tea/coffee and the only thing that would take 30 minutes from start to finish was muffins.
I haven't made them in a long time as I find them too sweet and if they have a crumble topping it's pretty much game over for me as I get such a sugar rush I need to lay down till the feeling passes.

I had some peAches in the fridge for I care not to remember how long, sometimes it just is that way and I am way too old not to keep it real , even for this blog. So the choices were either jam or some type of cake but then this brainstorm hit. After perusing some recipes I decided to combine a few recipes tweek them here and there and voila...what I think is the moistest best muffin recipe ever! 

However, be aware there have been many substitutions and additions only because it was a source of the moment recipe and I did not have all the proper ingredients. 
I should also mention that these muffins are not very sweet at all, but trust me quite delicious for my liking.
 
YOGURT PEACH MUFFINS
2 cups flour
1 T . Baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Mix above ingredients until well blended
1/3 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup honey
1cuo peach yogurt ( I did not have any so instead I cleaned up the Greek yogurt container and added some vanilla yogurt to make a one cup measure to.)
2 beaten eggs
Mix all wet ingredients 
Add dry ingredients to wet until well incorporated 
Peel and chop 2 large peaches ...I used 4 small ones
Fold the peaches into the batter
Spoon into a well greased 12 section muffin tin 
Bake at 350 for 18 minutes or until golden.
I increased it to 24 minutes as my stove needs a little adjustment and to be quite honest this recipe never really turns that golden brown as moist muffin recipes.
But trust me...moist...yummy just plain great!
