These super fun Peach Cobbler Muffins are just what you need for a summer breakfast! Packed with fresh peaches and cinnamon, but made without the grains. A kid-friendly breakfast or snack that is also kid approved! Paleo and Gluten-Free too.
No amount of summer heat is stopping my baking enthusiasm at the moment. Nor is it stopping my 12 year old! In fact, with out super high temps, we’ve been spending a lot more time in the house during the day, and my daughter is finding any excuse to bake her way through summer. A crate of peaches? Let’s do a cobbler. Still some left? I told her it was time to create something fun for breakfast.
So we dreamed up these Peach Cobbler Muffins. Lightly spiced with cinnamon, full of fresh chunks of peaches, and a buttery sweetened topping. And the simplicity of it? Grab your kids and let’s head to the kitchen for a fun summer indoor activity!
These Peach Cobbler Muffins are:
- Easy to make! You don’t even need a mixer.
- Healthy: Let’s be honest, it’s hard to come up with kid friendly breakfast that are actually good for your kids. These are full of fiber, even some protein from the almond flour, and not loaded with sugar.
- Fluffy, yet moist and delicious
- Easy to store! I love making a batch of muffins, and then having them the rest of the week. Store them in the freezer and just remove one and let it defrost at room temperature for 20 minutes before enjoying.
How to make Peach Cobbler Muffins:
Let’s gather up our easy ingredients:
- fresh peaches
- cinnamon
- almond flour
- coconut flour
- coconut sugar
- baking soda
- sea salt
- coconut oil
- vanilla extract
- dairy-free milk
- eggs
We start by prepping a muffin pan (liners or cooking spray), then chopping up our peaches and sprinkling them with cinnamon.
After setting the peaches aside, I whisked together the dry ingredients, and separately beat together the wet ingredients. I combined them together, and threw in the fresh peaches. Fill the muffin cups to 3/4 full. Make a crumb topping by combining some almond flour, coconut oil (can also use butter or ghee), and coconut sugar. Sprinkle on top of each muffin. Bake 18-20 minutes.
Remove from oven when the muffins are golden and spongy to the touch. Let sit and cool for 15 minutes before removing from the muffin pan.
Enjoy! You can even slather on a bit of butter to a warm muffin.
Adaptations:
Peaches: Use apples in place of peaches when they aren’t in season!
Nuts: pecans would taste really yummy in the streusel that is added to the top of each muffin
Butter/Ghee: butter or ghee can be used in place of the coconut oil

Recipe Notes
This recipe was adapted from Bravo For Paleo's Blueberry Muffin recipe.
These look delicious! The peaches in them are perfect for summer!
Thank You Jay! They were a big hit around here!
We tried these this morning and they were a hit! I didn’t have coconut flour on hand, so I just subbed brown rice flour and I grew in a little flax seed meal. Worked perfectly.
Is there a substitute for the canned coconut milk?
Yes! You can use any milk for this recipe: almond, flax, cashew, etc.
Looks wonderful. Can’t wait to get fresh peaches and try these muffins!
Wondering if you have tried without the 2 tbsp coconut flour? Does that small amount really contribute anything?
Yes, it helps to balance out the moist almond flour.
These are so yummy! I will be making them a lot when the weather gets cooler.
