• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

• 0.5 cup honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups fresh peaches, diced
• 2 tablespoons extra rolled oats (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or lightly greasing each cup.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, almond milk, applesauce, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the diced peaches, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Sprinkle the extra rolled oats over the tops of the muffins for a decorative and wholesome touch.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
