When are peaches in season?

A big factor of when any fruit or vegetable is in season or not is the climate. Peach season may occur anywhere between April and October.

In general, peach season is during the summer. Making now the perfect time to enjoy these peach muffins.

How do I know if a peach is ripe for baking?

There are three ways to tell if a peach is ripe:

  • Color: You will see a lot of red on peaches. However, the color that you want to look out for is a deep golden yellow in the background of the red.
  • Feel: If the peach is firm to the touch or when you give it a light squeeze, it is not ready. However, when you give it a gently squeeze and can press and it feels softened with a slight give, it’s ready!
  • Appearance/texture: When a peach is ready to eat, it will have a slight wrinkly texture around the stem of the peach. this is the best way to tell if a peach is ripe to eat or use in baking!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to double the batch and make 12 muffins?

Just double all of the ingredients and you have a full batch of 12 muffins! Using the recipe card below, you can click “2x” to double the batch for each ingredient.

I suggest baking with a space in between each muffin mold as that allows the muffins to rise more and get a more dome shape.

Can I swap peaches for any other fruit?

You could! However, there is always the possibility that a change will affect the consistency of the muffins. If you have other stone fruits on hand, that should be a 1:1 swap that does not impact that consistency of the batter.

If you use frozen fruit, that may add too much water to the batter.

Can I use coconut sugar instead of granulated sugar?

Yes, you can substitute the granulated sugar for coconut sugar at a 1:1 ratio.

How should I store these muffins?

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or in the fridge for 5 days.Ca

Can I freeze these muffins?

Freeze in a freezer-safe container or Ziplock bag for up to 2 months.
