Ingredients

Scale
  • Cupcakes:
    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp baking soda
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 3/4 cup sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1/2 cup buttermilk
    • 1/2 cup fresh peaches, finely chopped
    • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • Frosting:
    • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 2 cups powdered sugar
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • 1-2 tbsp heavy cream (optional for consistency)
    • Peach and raspberry slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
  • Gently fold in chopped peaches and raspberries.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
  • For the frosting: Beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. If needed, add heavy cream to reach desired consistency.
  • Frost the cooled cupcakes and garnish with peach and raspberry slices, if desired.

Notes

  • Be sure to gently fold in the fruit to avoid crushing the raspberries.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
