Juicy peaches in the summer are something that we always look forward to since they’re only available for such a short window of time. This year we decided to combine peaches with locally grown rhubarb to make these delicious, subtly sweet muffins. Scientists have found that peaches may even contain some anticancer properties, thanks to the antioxidant caffeic acid that’s found in peaches. The tart rhubarb pairs perfectly with sweet peach.
