Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven with a rack in the middle to 375 degrees F.
  2. Lightly spray or grease the top of the muffin pan so that the muffin tops don't stick. Place muffin liners into the cavities of the pan.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  4. In another bowl, mix the buttermilk or sour cream, egg, and vanilla. Add it to the dry ingredients.
  5. Using a fork, gently smash the diced peaches and then toss with tablespoon of granulated sugar, cinnamon, and pinch of nutmeg. Add the smashed peaches and melted butter to the dry ingredients, and stir until the dry ingredients are just incorporated.
  6. Portion the batter among the muffin cups. The batter will fill the entire muffin cup. Bake the muffins until a toothpick comes out clean, about 18 to 20 minutes.
  7. Cool the muffins in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan, and continue to cool on a wire rack. Top with cream cheese frosting and serve.

These muffins can be kept in an airtight container for up to two days.

For the frosting: melt cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl (about 40 seconds). Stir in powdered sugar; keep mixing until your frosting is smooth.
