Peach Cobbler Muffins

Every year my husband and I harvest fresh peaches off of his parents' peach trees and can them to save until to the next harvesting season. We do not add anything to these wonderfully sweet peaches except hot water for preservation. Throughout the year, I make everything from Peaches and Cream Pound Cake, Peach Crumble, and Cobbler. This morning, though, I decided to use them in some fresh baked muffins.
Over the past few weeks, I have been experimenting with several muffin recipes that do not have oil or butter. Instead, I have been using ripe bananas to provide creaminess and extra nutrients. These muffins combine buttermilk, canned peaches, and oats for a moist, delightful Peach Cobbler Muffin.
I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients
2 Ripe Bananas, Peeled and Sliced
1/2 Cup Packed Light Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Sugar
2 Eggs
1 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
1 Cup Quick Cook Oats
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/8 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
3/4 Cup Buttermilk
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 Cup Canned Peaches, Drained and Diced

Yield: 9 Large Muffins or 18 Regular Muffins

Directions
1. In a large mixer, cream bananas and sugars until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, combining well between each addition.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, oats, soda, powder, salt and cinnamon. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk and vanilla.
3. Slowly incorporate 1/3 of the flour mixture into the banana and sugar, beating well. Stream in half of the milk mixture. Continue with another 1/3 of the flour, the remaining milk, and then the last of the flour.
4. Quickly blend the peaches into the batter.
5. Prepare a large muffin tin with cooking spray. Carefully spoon the batter into the tins, filling each half full.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and carefully remove from the baking tins with a butter knife.
8. Enjoy with a large glass of milk or a cup of coffee!

Note: If you make regular size muffins, you may need to adjust cooking time.

  1. OK, Amee, here is a question for you. These sound great, but I'm not a big fan of bananas in any form but raw. I forego bananas in smoothies and can only tolerate banana bread if it contains chocolate chips. How much banana flavor is in these muffins? I'm hoping that the buttermilk disguises them. I'd love to try them...

    1. There is a slight banana taste to the muffins. However, you could try substituting 1 cup of applesauce for the 2 bananas. Hope this helps!

Lentil Burgers

Last night I cooked a large pot of lentils as part of our family dinner, which means that today, I was left wondering what I could do with all these lentils for the coming week. My typical use for lentils is in chili or soups, however, that is not something that I really wanted on this bright, spring day. Instead, I thought about how I could morph the leftovers into something new that I could use throughout the week, and that is when I thought of revamping my normal veggie burger recipe. Now, as promised, since this is the Quarantine Cooking Series, please feel free to use whatever beans or greens you have in your house. While I love the way this recipe turned out, it is more important that you use what you have and the technique to create a delicious meal for you and your family. Additionally, I like my veggie burgers on the spicy side. However, this is another place when personal modifications should be made to your palate preferences. 3 Tablespoons canola oil, divided

Black-eyed Pea Croquettes

So it is well known that I make  Black Bean Burgers  all the time. I love the versatility of the recipe and the ability to make a week of lunches in about 15 minutes. Today, I found myself with a bowl of leftover black-eyed peas in the fridge and the desire for something new. This recipe is also great because I always have canned black-eyed peas in the pantry since they are one of my husband's favorite vegetables, which means I can make this recipe anytime. So whether you use leftover homemade, like I did, or canned, this recipe is great. Additionally, these are not coated and fried like traditional croquettes, which makes them an even better option. Enjoy these as a side dish, on a sandwich, or with a side salad for a delicious, healthy, and easy meal. These do not hold or reheat well, so enjoy them while they're hot. 2 Cups Black-eyed Peas, drained and rinsed 3 Scallions, whites and greens thinly sliced 1 Clove Garlic 1 Egg, lightly beaten 3/4 Cup Bread Crumbs,

Banana Zucchini Bread with Raisins and Cinnamon Sugar Swirl

It is that time of year again when I am working to develop new and interesting ways to use up all of the vegetables coming from the garden. Last year, I posted "The Best Zucchini Bread"  recipe; this is still a great recipe but this one is even better! Since entering my last trimester of pregnancy, I am craving cinnamon raisin bread. This recipe was created to help merge the two flavors while also adding in some nutrients from bananas, as I always seems to have 2 or 3 that get left over and become a little too ripe. This bread is so fragrant, moist, and delicious! If I had some walnuts in the freezer, I might even finely chop some and incorporate them into the swirl for even more texture. This bread is perfect for breakfast, afternoon snack, or even dessert. I hope you will give this recipe a try. 2 very ripe Bananas, mashed 1 cup Zucchini, grated 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil 1 Egg, beaten 1 teaspoon Vanilla 3/4 cup Sugar 1 teaspoon Baking Soda 1/2 teaspoon Bakin
