Preparation
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream the Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Baking
- Combine Everything: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Ensure everything is well-combined.
- Peach Time: Fold in the diced peaches gently.
- Fill the Liners: Line your cupcake pan with liners and fill each with the batter, about two-thirds full.
- Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool Down: Let the cupcakes cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
Making the Cream Cheese Frosting
- Whip it Good: In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
- Add Sweetness: Gradually mix in powdered sugar, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whip until fluffy.
- Frost Away: Once your cupcakes are cooled, generously pipe or spread the frosting on each cupcake.
Notes
These cupcakes can be made a day in advance. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
