Peach season is almost here, and these Peach Almond Muffins with an almond crumble topping are a great thing to make with fresh peaches. They’re delicious and moist with lots of large pieces of peaches in each bite. The crumble topping is full of almonds and sweet and crunchy and the perfect contrast to the delicate crumb of the muffins. If you love peaches and a peach dessert you will love this peach muffins recipe. It is an absolute favourite of mine. These are great for breakfast or an afternoon snack.
One of the first time I made these I brought them to the beach for a meet up with my mom friends and their kids. My friends absolutely loved them, and all asked for the recipe afterward. I will always think of this recipe and that morning in the sun at the beach with the kids playing and swimming and us mom perched on the beach chatting and all sharing these delicious muffins together.
Fresh or Canned Peaches?
You can use fresh peaches in this recipe. These are amazing during peach season, made with fresh juicy peaches. Just remove the skin and cut the fruit up into a large dice. In fact, it’s a recipe I tried one year when I had too many peaches. But then one day, it wasn’t peach season and I wanted a muffin and I remembered these. I had the great idea to try making them with canned peaches. And they were still amazing -hooray (and quicker to make too). So if you have some juicy delicious fresh peaches to use up….or you don’t, you should make these amazing muffins. For the canned peaches I just drained their juice and cut them up into large diced pieces.
You won’t need any fancy equipment to make these flavorful muffins. No stand mixer or electric mixer is necessary to mix together this easy recipe. Just stir it together by hand and spoon batter into a muffin pan lined with prepared muffin cups. Lastly you’ll spoon on the amazing almond crumble topping and bake. This sweet peach muffins are sure to become a new favorite.

Storing The Peach Muffins
Because the crumble topping is so nice and crunchy, these peach muffins are best eaten as soon as they’re made. You can store leftovers in an airtight container, but the crumble on the tops of the muffins will lose a bit of it’s crispness.
These fresh peach muffins are perfect for summer days with the kids, when you need a little something to pack for a snack at the beach or park. These delicious peach muffins are the best breakfast too. Any peach lover will really love these. They’re one of my favorite muffin recipes. I love having one with a cup of tea or coffee. These cake-like muffins have a great peach flavor and the almond crumble with cinnamon sugar on the muffin tops adds a nice crunch.
