Strawberry Peach Muffins

Jump to recipe

Fruity Strawberry and Peach Muffins are loaded with fresh seasonal peaches and juicy strawberries.   They are perfect for breakfast, snack, or teatime.

The last few months have been very rocky in our home.  Between a kitchen renovation and multiple summer trips which included plenty of weekend getaways and a nice family vacation, our eating habits have suffered.  In a major way.  One of the biggest is getting the girls to eat their fruits and vegetables on the daily.  So I reverted back to my tricks.  Hiding them in plain sight.

These beautiful Strawberry and Peach Muffins use fresh fruits that I chopped into pieces.  I didn’t want to puree or lose the integrity of the fruit itself too much.  I wanted the girls to see the fruit as they were eating it.  Each muffin turned out so beautifully moist, soft, and delicious.  They’re not too sweet, and the fresh flavor of the fruit stands out.

  • I did use milk instead of yogurt because I didn’t want the muffins too dense.
  • I used fresh fruit as summer calls for it but if you want to use frozen, I’m sure it would work out just as well.  Remember not to thaw the fruit or it would make the batter too liquidy and affect the final baking temperature and the integrity of the muffins.
  • The vanilla glaze is optional.  I added it only to the muffins that I took pictures of.  Otherwise, I left it out and my girls enjoyed the muffins just as much.
  • I didn’t add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg but if you are making this recipe in the fall or winter, it would be a wonderful addition.

  1. These turned out beautifully! I did half with crystallized sugar sprinkles (for easier freezing) and half with glaze. I also subbed coconut sugar for half the brown sugar (so did half cup of each) and used monkfruit sweetener in lieu of white sugar. Worked perfectly!

  2. Oh my, those look great and sound delicious! Hope you all are doing well Sapna.🙂
