1 cup (250 ml) chopped peaches , (fresh, frozen or drained canned)

1 cup (250 ml) fresh blueberries or

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Butter nonstick muffin pans or line with paper liners.

In a bowl, combine milk and lemon juice; set aside. In a large bowl, combine all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Whisk sugar, egg and butter into milk mixture. Pour over dry ingredients and sprinkle with peaches and blueberries. Stir just until moistened.

Tips

Cooking Tip:
If using frozen fruit, do not thaw before adding to batter to reduce bleeding of the colour. The baking time will be in the higher range. If using canned peaches, drain and pat dry before adding to batter.

For the Adventurous:
Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) minced crystallized or 1 tbsp (15 mL) minced fresh gingerroot with fruit.

Stuff full of chopped walnuts. Peaches and walnuts have a knack for going together. Turned out great!
