  1. These were fairly easy to make, and smelled wonderful when baking. I do think the spices seemed to overwhelm the peach flavor, however I was a couple of TBS short of peaches so possibly that was problem. The texture was more muffin like than the cakelike muffins I am used to making. I think I will try again with more peaches and less spice.
     
  2. Peach season has just started here, and even though they are still a bit expensive, I just couldn't wait and had to try these muffins. I used all brown sugar, and cut back on the cinnamon, since some family members are not fans. I chopped the peaches into as small pieces as I could manage while getting them to keep their shape, and made these into mini muffins. The smell was heavenly while they were baking. My youngest took a few with her to school yesterday and was mobbed! I can't wait until my peach tree starts giving me fruit (usually in August) so I can have some home-grown muffins! Great recipe, Kree!
     
  3. Delicious and perfect for breakfast! These seem to be a bit healthier than most breakfast muffins with very simple easy-to-follow directions. I think these will also work out well with canned/frozen peaches in the winter. Thanks Kree for sharing this keeper muffin recipe. We will be having these again -- next time I will try them with frozen peaches though.
     
  4. Smelled great while baking, but pretty bland.
     
  5. I found these muffins to be heavy and lacked flavor. Maybe the peaches I used weren't ripe enough but I'm not sure I would mess with making these again.

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career. Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
