Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup milk
• 1 ½ cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
2. Prepare the peach filling: In a small bowl, mix the diced peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
3. Make the cupcake batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
5. Assemble the cupcakes: Fill each cupcake liner about halfway with the batter. Spoon a generous amount of the peach filling on top of the batter in each liner.
6. Bake: Place the cupcake tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
7. Cool: Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Expert Tips

• Use fresh peaches: For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh peaches. If fresh peaches are not available, you can use frozen peaches, but be sure to thaw and drain them well.
• Don’t overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in dense cupcakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
• Add a crumble topping: For an extra touch, sprinkle a crumble topping made from flour, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon over the peach filling before baking.
• Store properly: Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
