Peach Basil Muffins

Peach Basil Muffins

Every summer, my basil takes on a life of its own, overflowing in my garden beds. I stare at it every morning with gratitude that I get to pick it fresh daily for my recipes!

A few years ago, my neighbor shared a recipe that paired two summer staples: basil and peaches. I loved it so much, I tucked it away like a little culinary treasure. Well, it’s time to bring it back into the spotlight and share it with all of you.

There’s just something about the sweet juiciness of ripe peaches and the bright, herbal note of fresh basil that creates a summer symphony on your plate. It’s simple. It’s fresh. And it’s everything I want this time of year.

You will need:

2 packages Martha White Corn Muffin Mix ( 7 oz ea)

1 cup whole milk

2 eggs

4 peaches peeled and chopped small

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/3 cup finely chopped basil

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a muffin pan with olive oil. Blend the mix, milk and eggs together well. Add the peaches, basil and cheese. Spoon the batter into 12 muffin cups.

Bake for 20 minutes.
