A few posts ago (in this 5-Minute Spinach Vegetarian Quesadillas recipe) I talked about how ready I am for fall (I know, I know). But then I go on and make this peach muffins recipe that makes me all heart eyes about peach season (errr….umm….summer season)!
Here’s the thing: I just really love food. But I ESPECIALLY love food when it’s seasonal, wholesome, healthy, and tastes heavenly. And guys, this recipe is all of those things and more! Seriously one of my most fave muffins recipes to date. NBD! 😉
How to make this Wholesome Peach Muffins recipe your own:
There are a few ingredients that I used in this recipe that can definitely be subbed as needed! Feel free to play around with these different options and make these healthy peach muffins fit your lifestyle. 😉
- I used honey, but feel free to replace with agave syrup or real maple syrup.
- I love using real, grass-fed butter in baking recipes. However, feel free to replace this with 1/2 cup of oil of your choice! Coconut oil is a great option as well as avocado oil.
- The greek yogurt can be replaced with a non-dairy yogurt, such as coconut or almond yogurt.
- Want to make this recipe vegan? Try replacing the egg with this Easy Flax Egg Recipe!
Side note: I made a streusel topping by mixing together a little bit of rolled oat flour, brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon. It was delicious, but definitely an optional add-on!
My favorite ways to devour these Wholesome Peach Muffins:
These muffins are pretty amazing all on their own, but I’m absolutely loving them topped with yogurt and fruit in the mornings for breakfast! I also like keeping them in the fridge for a quick and easy snack. Nothing beats enjoying them warm and straight out of the oven, of course.
Did I mention that they’ll make your house smell AMAZING? So yummy!
Pro-tip: Use a blender to make this peach muffins recipe. I absolutely love my Ninja Blender because it has a dough setting that’s perfect for baked goods!

Can I use other fruit? Also what about using frozen/thawed fruit or canned? Thanks!
Christine McMichael replied:
Yes, absolutely! Peeled and sliced apples, blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries all would work great. Frozen fruit works great as long as it’s mostly thawed. I would not recommend canned fruit as it could end up pretty mushy in the muffins. I hope you enjoy the recipe!

These were wonderful and I made my own oat topping (which I wish you gave the recipe for)
However, they did not take 45 minutes to bake. I have never see a muffin recipe take so long to bake. I took mine out after 30 minutes and that was a bit too long. Great flavor though!!!

Hi Christine!
I’d love to make this recipe but unfortunately don’t have a blender on hand. What would be the equivalent amount of flour to the rolled-oat flour?
Thanks,
Natalie 🙂
Christine McMichael replied:
Hi, Natalie! You can just sub the same amount of regular flour for rolled oat flour. I hope you enjoy the recipe! 🙂
