Start the new day, the right way with these delicious Peach Jam Middle Muffins with Streusel Topping. This recipe is the best way to have a burst of morning sunshine, even if the weather is gloomy outside. The middle of these muffins is made of a simple, quick homemade peach jam under an oaty streusel topping. The muffin has a secret ingredient of natural yoghurt to make them crazy soft. All the elements for a delicious breakfast in one case!
If you’ve not made jam before, this recipe is the perfect starting point. It’s a small batch so not having to wrestle with big vats of hot sugar or playing with pectin. I peel the peaches, by blanching the peaches in boiling water then plunging into ice water and the skin should slip off. If time is of the essence then, you can use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin but make sure you have the same prepared peach flesh amount. You can make the jam ahead of time as well as the streusel topping so the recipe is even quicker if making the muffins in the morning half awake.
