Ingredients
 
 

For the Topping

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, very soft
  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup chopped nuts of your choice optional

For the Muffins

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger optional (leave out for other muffin varieties)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ⅔ cup vegetable oil
  • ⅔ cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract OR vanilla extract
  • 2 peaches peeled, pitted, and diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Mix together the flour and sugar for the topping in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work the butter into the dry mixture with a fork or a pastry cutter. Add the nuts, if using, and stir in. Set aside.
  • Mix together the dry ingredients for the muffins together in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Pour the milk into a large bowl. Add the sour cream, vegetable oil, eggs, and extract. Whisk until well combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
  • Toss diced peaches with 1 tablespoon flour. Gently fold the peaches into the batter until just combined.
  • Lightly grease with pan spray or line a 12 cup muffin tin with muffin liners. Using a cookie scoop or a ⅓ cup measuring cup, scoop the batter into each muffin cup.
  • Top each muffin with the crumb topping. Bake at 375F for 18-20 minutes on the middle oven rack. The muffins are ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean and the crumb topping is golden.
  • Remove muffins from the muffin tin and let cool. Muffins will keep for 3-4 days at room temperature in an airtight container.
