Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice. Set aside.

  3. In a separate larger bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.

  4. Add the honey and mix until well combined.

  5. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.

  6. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract.

  7. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  8. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.

  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.

  10. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
