Ingredients
- 1 and ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- ⅓ cup sunflower oil
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- ⅓ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 orange zest
- 1 and ½ cups fresh chopped peaches
For the streusel:
- ⅔ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, cold and diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 12 muffin cups with liners or lightly grease them.
For the streusel
- In a medium bowl, mix gluten-free all-purpose flour and sugars. Add diced cold butter and mix with your fingertips until crumbs form. Place the crumble on a plate in the refrigerator.
For the muffins
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, milk, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
- Add the sifted dry ingredients and the peaches and mix until well incorporated. At this moment, you can also add chopped toasted walnuts.
- Pour the mixture into the previously prepared pans. Fill the muffin cups ¾ full, dividing the mixture as evenly as possible. Sprinkle with the crumble.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked. Keep in mind that all ovens are different. To know if it's ready, insert a toothpick into the center of the muffins; it should come out clean, with no streaks of batter.
- Let cool before removing.
Notes
Store the muffins covered at room temperature or in the refrigerator for several days.
Peaches: should not be too ripe, so that they do not soften too much during cooking. They should be soft and tender, but firm.
