Start your day off right with oatmeal, whole wheat, maple syrup and peaches in muffin form. They are perfect with a cup of coffee or tea. Muffins freeze great as well so you can make them now and enjoy the extras later!

I originally developed and shared this recipe back in 2015. It was the perfect solution for having an easy breakfast for the guys while I was out of town.

This year I had some yummy local peaches that were lingering just a tad too long. So I turned back to this recipe to solve that problem as well.

Is it just me or are peaches a little like avocados in that they turn from hard to super soft in the blink of an eye. You wait and wait for them to be perfect and one day later they are past their prime.

Luckily peaches are perfect for baking with no matter what. They can be used a little bit hard or a little too soft, obviously within reason.

So I took a couple of softer peaches and diced them up for these muffins. It had been a while since I made them, so it was fun to get back to this recipe.

 They were as good as I remembered them to be. Plus way more nutritious than your general muffin.

The final texture almost reminds me of a cross between my favorited soft baked oatmeal recipes and standard muffin recipes. They are sweet enough, but not dessert level sweet.

So I highly recommend you whip some up.  They really are a great way to start the day or a fabulous snack.
