These fruity Peach Raspberry Muffins are loaded with fresh seasonal peaches and juicy raspberries and a little hint of lemon. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or snack time.
I whipped up these Raspberry Peach Muffins last week and they disappeared VERY quickly. While they make an amazing breakfast or afternoon snack, they also freeze really well. Not that I think they’ll even last that long to hit the freezer…
Not much beats freshly baked muffins, but jumping on a chance to use fresh seasonal fruit definitely makes a difference! The fresh pops of fruit, make these extra special.
Baking With Peaches
I adore peach season and right now local peach trees are finally heavy with fresh and ripe fruit (my tiny little tree included!). A quick trip to a nearby fruit stand if you can is a MUST! Enjoying the fruit in all it’s natural glory is my favourite, but I also really love incorporating peaches into cooking and baking. Here are some of my favourites!
- Peaches and Cream Scones
- Peach Crisp (Gluten Free)
- Grilled Peach & Corn Salad (soooo good!)
- Peach & Cherry Salsa
And if you love the idea of baking with fresh raspberries, this Raspberry Lemon Loaf is so incredible.
Healthier Muffin Recipes
In the ideal world, we all carve out time to sit down with our cup of tea or coffee, make a nice balanced breakfast, and relax to eat with our loved ones over casual conversation before taking on the day. Since that isn’t always the case (lol), it’s important to me to have something healthy that we can grab in a rush for those busy mornings. This is where my healthier muffin recipes come in!
It’s no secret I love a good muffin, and I have the recipes to prove it! Like my Sneaky Mommy Muffins, or Vanilla Pear Yogurt Muffins! Or for something different, these Lemon Blueberry Ricotta Muffins are in a league of their own.

Peach Raspberry Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 cup peaches, peeled and diced small
- 2 eggs beaten
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/2 cup oil olive oil, avocado oil or other neutral oil
- 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar

- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peaches, eggs, vanilla, oil, yogurt, brown sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and maple syrup.
-
In a large bowl, combine the salt, baking powder, baking soda, flour and whisk together. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir together with a rubber spatula until well combined. Lightly fold in the raspberries.

Using a large ice cream scoop, portion out the muffin batter into the prepared liners.

Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until just golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven to cool on a baking rack and serve (these freeze well for up to 2 months).
Where do the bananas go? Tx!
Hi Kelley,
They go in with the wet ingredients (butter or oil etc). I hope this helps!
Can I use regular flour?
Hi Mary, sorry for the delay this comment got lost somehow! Yes you can! Take care, Tori
Just came back with a box of OK peaches, but had to freeze them before they went bad. I will try the recipe and hopefully it works with frozen peaches!
These look delicious Tori. I can’t wait to make them. I was wondering if the raspberry on top is put on before you bake or after they come out of the oven?
Hi! What could I substitute for the yogurt to make these dairy free? They look delish!
Hi Jara I would just use dairy free yogurt! Happy baking! Tori
Can I use sugar instead of maple syrup? If so, same amount 1/2 cup?
Hi Lori, I haven’t tried substituting maple syrup – you could try coconut sugar if you’re looking for an alternate? I would worry that it would impact the end texture of the muffin with altering the liquid:dry ratio.
I made these last year and they were so good! I’m trying them again but I thought there were bananas in them? Did the recipe change or maybe I’m remembering wrong? Thanks!
Hey Amy! We did recently redo the recipe (it needed a refresh as I first made it in 2014 haha!) but there shouldn’t have been in the old recipe! But I did just make these in this way, and they were SO good…. I hope you enjoy! xx Tori
Thanks for the recipe – they turned out fantastic! (Just took closer to 20 minutes in my oven)
Thanks so much Jaclyn! xx Tori
Made these with my 2 year old. They are soooooo yummy. Thank you for the wonderful recipe 🙂
Thank you so much Tanya! Happy to hear you loved!! xx Tori
I made these with my grandson today and they are delicious! I didn’t have brown sugar so used white and baked them for 22 minutes. Might leave them in for another minute or two next time. I’m going to get more peaches tomorrow so I can make more for the freezer!
Hey Tracey! Thanks so much for the lovely review I am so happy you liked these! xx Tori
These look amazing! Could you substitute a flax or chia egg?
Hi Katie! I haven’t tried but I see no reason why you couldn’t!
Made these today and turned out delish! However I will adjust the bake time to 20-22 mins. I baked them for 30 and found that they were too well done. Thanks Tori 🙂
Thank you Renata I appreciate the feedback I will add a range as ovens certainly do bake differently! Glad you liked them! Tori
