Instructions
- In a small container, combine the diced peaches with lemon juice and sugar.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the peach mixture and cook briefly, about 2-3 minutes, ensuring the peaches stay firm.
- Extract about 2 tablespoons of the liquid, combine it with cornstarch to make a slurry, then pour it back into the saucepan. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the mixture thickens and lightens slightly.
- Transfer the peach mixture to a bowl, stir in the vanilla extract, and place it in the fridge while preparing the cupcake batter.
- Set the oven to 350F/177C for convection or 325F/163C for conventional baking. Line 15 cupcake molds with liners.
- In a mixing bowl, blend the lemon zest with sugar thoroughly.
- Add cake flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon to the sugar mixture, stirring until evenly mixed.
- Incorporate the oil and softened butter into the dry ingredients, mixing until well blended.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- With the mixer on low, add sour cream, then slowly pour in the milk, scraping the bowl edges until the batter is smooth.
- Spoon about 2/3 of the batter into each cupcake liner, aiming for around 45 grams per cupcake.
- Distribute the peach filling evenly on top of the batter, approximately 20-25 grams per cupcake, and bake for 20-22 minutes. Cupcakes are done when they spring back slightly when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted at the side comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
- Spread the all-purpose flour onto a small baking sheet or oven-safe dish and bake for 5 minutes to heat treat. Alternatively, microwave for about a minute.
- Melt the butter gently, ensuring it isn’t too hot; let it cool slightly if needed.
- Combine the flour, light brown sugar, and cinnamon with the melted butter using a fork until the mixture becomes crumbly. If too sticky, add a tiny bit more flour, mixing lightly.
- Set aside until ready to use for topping the cupcakes.
- Beat the cream cheese and unsalted butter together in a mixing bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Add in powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt, mixing at low-medium speed until just combined, then increase speed until smooth.
- Gradually add the heavy whipping cream on low speed, then turn up the mixer to medium-high for another minute until well integrated, avoiding over-mixing.
- Use the prepared frosting to decorate the cupcakes, then finish with the streusel topping and a fresh peach slice.
- Serve right away or store in the refrigerator.
