Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Cupcake Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup peaches, diced
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.5 cups brown sugar
Frosting Ingredients
  • 1 package cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cups powdered sugar

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until combined.
Peach Compote
  1. In a small saucepan, combine the diced peaches, cinnamon, and brown sugar over medium heat until the peaches are soft and the mixture is syrupy.
Baking
  1. Fill each cupcake liner halfway with batter, add a spoonful of the peach compote, then top with more batter to fill the liners about 2/3 full.
  2. Bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Frosting
  1. While the cupcakes are cooling, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth to make the frosting.
  2. Once the cupcakes are fully cooled, frost them with the cream cheese frosting and serve.

Notes

For best results, avoid overmixing the batter after adding flour. If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain them before cooking. These cupcakes can be made ahead for occasions like Thanksgiving.
