These were really yummy and quick to throw together. I was very tempted to add spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, whatever) but I'm glad I didn't; these really have nice flavor on their own. I used Smart Balance for the butter, and used only 1/3 c sugar as we don't like super sweet muffins. Even that much was about our limit, so if you don't like a lot of sweetness I'd back off the full amount of sugar. I also used plain yogurt for the sour cream, and half ww flour and half oat flour. Thanks for posting! Made for PRMR.

Great recipe. I made these today for guests and was thrilled at how they turned out. I followed the recipe exactly except that I diced the peaches instead of chopped, and if I make them again (very likely) I will do that. I also will double the recipe so that there are some left over!

Wow, iewe, these muffins are so yummy! I made them for breakkie this morning using fresh nectarines instead of peaches, cause thats what I had on hand. They turned out so moist and flavourful, that I was lucky to get a pic, cause they disappeared so fast. ;) Like boomette, I also had to add some liquid to the batter, cause it was rather stiff, but then the muffins baked perfectly. I subbed all whole spelt flour for the ap, cause I was out of that. That way my muffins were a little more on the heavy side, but still turned out fabulous. YUM! Thanks so much for sharing this lovely treat with us. I will certainly make it again as long as I can get my hands on fresh fruit. Made and reviewed for Potluck Tag June 09.

I really liked these muffins. They had a good taste. I used homemade canned peaches. I didn't drain them cause the batter was very thick and I added a little bit of milk. I cooked them only 20 minutes but I should have let them for 25 minutes. Some of them were too moist. But all of them were eaten and enjoyed. For us, there was nothing missing. I used only 1/2 cup of sugar. I used vegetable oil instead of butter. Thanks Iewe. Made for Kids Friendly tag game.

A great new fruit (for me, anyway) to include in muffins ~ THESE ARE OUTSTANDING, easy to prepare & with a great taste! I did include the nuts ~ They're a really nice addition! Thanks, much, for sharing! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Stars Tag Game]
