Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup finely diced peaches
  • 1 cup buttercream frosting
  • Peach slices, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients and milk alternately, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the diced peaches.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners.
  8. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
  10. Decorate with buttercream frosting and garnish with peach slices before serving.

Notes

  • Drain canned peaches well before using to prevent excess moisture.
  • Frozen peaches should be thawed and patted dry before adding to the batter.
  • Cream cheese frosting pairs beautifully with the peach flavor.
  • Add cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm spice variation.
  • Unfrosted cupcakes can be frozen for up to 2 months.
