Method

Muffin Batter

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F/204°C.
  2. Line a standard-sized muffin tin with liners or grease the tin.
  3. In a medium-sized mixing bowl stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. In a small bowl whisk the melted butter, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until almost combined. Toss in the blackberries and peach chunks and gently stir just to combine. The batter will be a little lumpy.

To Assemble

  1. Portion the batter between 6-9 of the muffin cavities, filling each of the cavities to the top but not over. These are big gorgeous muffins with muffin tops.
  2. Top each muffin with a wedge of peach.
  3. Stir together the sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar generously on top of each muffin, including the peach.
  4. Bake the muffins for about 18-22 minutes until they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean but with a few moist crumbs.
  5. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool on a rack.
