Step-by-Step Instructions

- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.

- Cool: Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Expert Tips
- Use Fresh Peaches: For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe peaches. If fresh peaches aren’t available, you can substitute with canned peaches, but be sure to drain them well.
- Add a Crumble Topping: For an extra touch, sprinkle a crumble topping made from flour, sugar, and butter over the cupcakes before baking.
- Store Properly: Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
