Description
Learn how to make delicious Recipe for Honey Peach Cream Cheese Cupcakes. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Tip: If fresh peaches are out of season, canned peaches work just fine. Just make sure to drain them well. And if you’re out of buttermilk, a simple mix of milk and lemon juice or vinegar will do the trick!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and honey together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until well combined.
- Alternate adding the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the wet mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches, being careful not to overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack.
- For the frosting, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Once the cupcakes are cool, spread or pipe the cream cheese frosting over each one.
Pro Tip: Over the years, I’ve learned that patience is key when it comes to cooling cupcakes. Let them cool entirely before frosting to avoid a melty mess—trust me, it’s worth the wait!
