I love peaches! It’s probably my favourite fruit and when it comes to the summer, it’s what I often look forward to picking up at the store or farmer’s market. I often find myself grabbing the 3 litre basket of peaches only to realize that I need to rush to eat them before they go bad. To prevent my worry of the peaches going bad, you will often see me making these muffins. It’s a great way to use up any peaches that might be starting to go bad and makes for a great treat. I recommend going the extra mile to make the streusel topping as this makes the muffins even better.
