Honey Peach Muffins

Fragrant peaches turn these muffins into tender delights sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. For the best possible flavor, make these when peaches are in season, and wait until yours are especially ripe—the softer and riper your peaches, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be. Serve these for a Sunday brunch treat, and every guest will be asking for the recipe. These are marvelous with a Paleo-approved raspberry or strawberry jam, but they are equally delicious plain or with just a pat of unsalted, grass-fed butter. Freeze leftovers for an anytime treat the whole family will love.
