This easy Peach Cupcake recipe turns simple ingredients, pantry staples, and juicy peaches into something special. These fluffy cupcakes are moist, tender, and bursting with peach flavor thanks to fresh peach puree in the cake batter and the buttercream frosting. Serve these at your next family party, Sunday brunch, or whenever you want a little something special.
The Ultimate Fresh Peach Cupcakes
These Peach Cupcakes have all the juicy flavor of fresh peaches baked into tender, fluffy cupcakes. I love how vibrant the peach flavor is throughout both the cake and the homemade buttercream frosting.
So often, peach desserts revolve around a gooey filling (peach cobbler, I’m talking about you), but there’s something to be said about the simplicity of a good cupcake.
This easy cupcake recipe has so much peach flavor throughout every part. I know the ingredients list might look intimidating, but it’s mostly pantry staples and peaches. I recommend using fresh peaches for this recipe—we’re still in peach season after all!
You can always use frozen peaches; just let them thaw and drain any excess liquid before adding them to the other ingredients. We’re looking for moist, not mushy, cupcakes.
This recipe has three components:
peach vanilla cupcakes,
peach puree, and
peach buttercream frosting.
Making the puree is easy. You just simmer the peaches until you can finely mash them. Once cool, you add it to your cake batter, which will lace every bite with that sweet flavor of Southern peaches.
Next, you make a simple buttercream frosting and add part of the peach puree to it for a hint of flavor. The extra peach in the frosting ties these moist cupcakes together!
Top these cupcakes with a fresh peach slice and serve alongside an ice cold glass of Sweet Peach Tea to continue the theme. Trust me, everyone will be begging you for this recipe! Try taking them to your next potluck.
Peach Season Tips
Time of Year – Peach season tends to fall in the summer months, but can vary depending on your location. Keep an eye on your local grocery stores and farmers markets for fresh, seasonal produce.
Just a Little Give – Ripe peaches will have just a little bit of give when you squeeze, a vibrant color, and a rich scent.
Save For Later – Freeze leftover peaches to have them on hand year-round! They’re great in baked goods, sauces, and smoothies.
