I can’t stand letting anything go to waste
in my home (my fiancé will agree that sometimes it get’s a bit extreme), in
particular, brown bananas! As most of you know, the completely overripe stage where they look, feel and taste
horrendous can be transformed into a delicious delicacy with a little persuasion…
You will need:
80g butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
3 bananas
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1.
Turn the oven onto 180oC and
grease a cupcake mould with canola oil spray.
2.
Cream the butter and sugar
using an electric mixer.
3.
Beat in the eggs until
combined.
4.
Peel and chop the bananas into
small chunks then fold into the mixture. along with vanilla essence.
5.
Mix together the flour, baking
powder and salt, then fold this into the mixture as well until ingredients are
just combined.
6.
As this recipe does not rise
very much you can fill each cupcake mould up to 3/4 full and bake in the oven for
10 minutes.
7.
Once cakes have cooled, whip
together 1 part butter with 3 parts icing sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla
essence. Spread or pipe a tablespoon of buttercream over each banana cup.
Don't be afraid to cook special treats so often, it's much more fun to share the love with neighbours, friends and family!
