Banana Cupcakes

Cookinero 27 Feb 2025

Banana cupcakes are an exotic variety of muffins, a dessert that came from sunny Italy. Airy treats are easily prepared in the oven on a muffin "pan". A special non-stick form prevents the dough from spreading on the baking sheet. Until recently, banana muffins could only be ordered in pastry shops and cafes, but now every housewife can make them at home. Banana cream, dough and filling for cupcakes include products that are always available in the household.

How to cook Banana Cupcakes

Step 1

Banana Cupcakes

Prepare the cupcake batter. Take flour, baking powder and soda. Mix well and sift through a fine sieve into a deep bowl. Melt the butter. Make sure it is not too hot. Hot butter causes the egg white to curdle. Mix the melted butter, eggs and sugar in a separate bowl. Mash the banana until smooth and add it to the egg mixture.

Step 2

Add sour cream to the resulting mixture with banana puree and mix thoroughly. Combine the mass with the dry flour mixture, mix until smooth. Grind the nuts and add them to the dough. Leave a small amount to decorate the finished dessert.

Step 3

Bake the cupcakes in the oven. To do this, preheat it to 180 degrees. Place paper cupcake liners in a special baking pan. Pour the batter 2/3 full into each pan. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for readiness with a match. If it remains dry, the cupcakes can be taken out of the oven.
