Method:

1. Grease sixteen 2 1/2-inch muffin cups; set aside. In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and allspice. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; set aside.

2. In another medium bowl combine egg, sour cream, brown sugar, milk, and oil; stir in peaches. Add peach mixture all at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy).

3. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each two-thirds full. Sprinkle batter with Streusel Topping.

4. Bake in a 400°C oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in muffin cups. Remove from muffin cups; serve warm.

Streusel Topping:

1. In small bowl stir together 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon.

2. Using a pastry blender, cut in 4 teaspoons butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
