Fresh Plum or Peach Cobbler Muffins image

This is an variation on a recipe found in The Muffin Lady cookbook. I used plums, because that's what I had, but peaches would be delicious, too. She says to use unripe fruit, as it will ripen up and get sweet during cooking. Also, use sliced fruit rather than chopped, because chopped will tend to "get lost" during baking. These muffins are like a hand held fruit cobbler. So good!

Yield 6 large muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 firm plums or 2 peaches
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 cup oil
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
cinnamon, for dusting muffin tops

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Peel and slice fruit into 6 slices each.
  • Sift the dry ingredients, making a well in the center.
  • Pour wet ingredients into the well, and blend by hand.
  • (Batter will be thicker than regular muffin batter.) Scoop batter into lightly greased, large 6 muffin pan.
  • Insert 2 plum or peach wedges into each muffin.
