Ingredients
CUPCAKE
- 1 2/3 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 cup salted butter, room temperature
- 3 egg whites
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 + 1/8 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3/4 cup diced peaches
PEACH ICING
- 1/2 cup salted butter
- 1/2 cup shortening
- 4–5 cups powdered sugar
- 5–7 tbsp peach puree
- 12–14 peach slices for topping, if desired
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Whisk together flour, sugars, cinnamon, baking soda and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.
3. Add butter, egg whites, vanilla, sour cream and milk and mix on medium speed until smooth.
4. Stir in peaches.
5. Fill cupcake liners a little more than half way.
6. Bake 18-20 minutes.
7. Allow to cool for 1-2 minutes, then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
8. To make the icing, beat the shortening and butter until smooth.
9. Slowly add 3 cups of powdered sugar. Mix until combined.
10. Mix in 5 tbsp of peach puree.
11. Add the rest of the powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
12. Add more peach puree to get the right consistency and flavor. The more puree added, the thinner the icing will be. If it gets too thin, add more powdered sugar.

Notes
For the cupcakes and icing, only 3-4 peaches should be needed. More will be needed if you want to top the cupcakes with peach slices.
