Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons kosher salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cups milk
- 2 units large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh peach, diced
- 0.5 cups cooked and crumbled bacon
- 0.25 cups chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and kosher salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the diced peach, crumbled bacon, and pecans (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your Georgia Breakfast Muffins!
