These simple muffins are packed with juicy peaches and are reminiscent of peach cobbler! Vegan friendly with a gluten-free alternative!
It’s been in the 90’s for the past several weeks and it’s not even officially summer yet.😳 I don’t think I’ll ever be used to the heat here in the south. The combo of heat and humidity makes it feel like you’re walking around covered up in a hot, wet blanket.
The saving grace of this miserable heat is all the yummy summer fruits and veggies—zucchini, tomatoes, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, watermelon, cherries, peaches…we’ve been thoroughly enjoying summer’s bounty, which makes up for it all!
One of our favorite summer desserts is peach cobbler—Juicy peaches blended together with warm spices and a cake like crust. so. yum. This version is made even more simple in muffin form. Perfect grab and go snack which is wholesome enough for breakfast, yet delicious enough for dessert!
Y’all, I could seriously eat these muffins everyday they’re that delish. Just give ’em a try for yourself and see!

- 2 teaspoons white vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 1/3 cups (205g) gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 2/3 cup (77g) super fine almond flour (This helps the texture significantly so I don’t recommend subbing for more gf all-purpose flour)

- 1/2 cup avocado oil or other neutral tasting cooking oil

- In a separate glass dish, blend together milk and vinegar and let sour while you prepare the batter.

I made these a couple of weeks ago, and they were soooo good! I tried both versions -unbleached, all-purpose flour AND Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten-Free Baking Mix. No problem with the ap flour (delicious and got rave reviews for them from others); however, the gluten-free version was very “wet”. They were still fine to eat the first day (great flavor) but very sticky and almost soggy the next morning. 🙁 Would love to figure out a good solution, but I don’t have the money or time to play around with GF recipes. :/
Hi Nikki, thanks for the kind and helpful review! I’m glad you enjoyed the version with regular flour and am sorry the gf version didn’t work for you. Did you only use the 1-to-1 baking flour or did you use the almond flour as well? When I was testing the recipe for this, I first tried it with only a gluten free flour blend and was not happy with the results, which is why I added the almond flour to the recipe. It made a dramatic difference in the texture and I don’t recommend replacing it with additional gf all-purpose flour. Unfortunately, the gluten-free flour blends currently out on the market still need a little more tweaking before they’ll truly be able to replace all-purpose flour in cake recipes.
Such pretty muffins, these are perfect for summer!
Ok I’ll be trying these for sure! They look so good!!
I absolutely love peach cobbler!!!! It’s one of my faves!!! I’m sure this recipe will quickly become well loved in my family!
I absolutely love that you think to include subtitles for other types f dietary restrictions. A lot of people are discovering food allergies and sensitives to gluten and dairy in adulthood these days, myself included, so it’s much appreciated! And these muffins look wonderful!
These look SO good. I think it’s the cinnamon across the tops that does it! 😀
Aw, thank you Amy!
This looks super yummy. This is something I definitely have to try out. I’ll let you know if it looks as good as yours.
Thanks Victoria!
Oh wow these muffins look so delicious and perfect for the summer! I love how easy it is to make them!
