Notes

*Choose slightly soft, but still firm peaches. They hold up better after baking. While very soft peaches and drained canned diced peaches can be used, they will be very soft after baking. Also, you can used peeled or unpeeled peaches. They both work and taste great in this recipe. However, the look of the peel from unpeeled peaches inside the muffin isn't as pretty.
