Whether served warm or at room temperature, Peach Melba Muffins are a delightful treat packed with seasonal fruit and baked to perfection.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.
Fold in the diced peaches and fresh raspberries carefully to avoid breaking them apart too much.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Optional: Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with sliced almonds for a crunchy texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the fruity, nutty goodness of these Peach Melba Muffins!
