I promise this is the last peach recipe I'll post till next year! LOL!!  When you've got them, you've got to use them! I hadn't planned on making these but the more I thought about peaches with brown sugar cinnamon and pecans.. well, before I knew it I had muffins.  They are absolutely delicious!  The peach flavor is fantastic.  I used fresh peaches but you can also use frozen that are drained well and canned peaches.  The muffin portion is so moist and soft.  There's a little over a cup of fresh cubed peaches in the recipe which gives you that delicious fresh peach taste.  The topping of melted butter,brown sugar ,pecans and cinnamon fit these muffins perfectly.   It's not an overly sweet muffin, everything works together perfectly to give you an outstanding flavor and texture.  I wouldn't change a thing, it's just to good.  A warm peach muffin with a cup of coffee, you are going to love these!  Enjoy!
