- Preheat the oven to 350ºF (175ºC). This essential step lets your muffins bake evenly.

- Whisk the eggs, olive oil, and yogurt together in a separate bowl until smooth and well-combined.
- Combine the yogurt mixture gently with the dry ingredients, folding until just mixed.
- Fold in the chopped peaches gently, then fill muffin cups or greased loaf tin and top with Demerara sugar if desired.
- Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
Use ripe peaches for the best flavor. Allow muffins to cool before transferring to a wire rack. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer enjoyment.
