Banana cup cakes

This is the first time I made cup cakes, I make muffins all the time but have never really put any icing on them. Moreover I do not make muffins very often as I enjoy making bread and cakes more, muffins need some more effort and time. But they look so much appealing than the otherwise boring bread. They are loved by kids and relished by adults. There is just so much you can do with frosting that I would just love to give a unique twist to each one of them, if time permits of course.

This recipe is quite basic one and needs very little time and ingredients . You need not restrict yourself with the icing done here and just go ahead and give wings to your imagination, as you can not go wrong with frosting these. Basic cup cake recipe calls for white flour and butter we can do much better those devils ! So who misses them anyways.

Ingredients:

1 very ripe banana 

1/4 tablespoon baking powder 

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 tablespoon vanilla extract 

2 tablespoon canola oil

3/4 cup oats

Icing :
Whipping cream - 2 tablespoon
cocoa powder - 1 table spoon
chocolate sprinkles - 1/2 tablespoon

Recipe :

Blend the wet ingredients - oil, sugar  and banana , stir in oats, baking powder and vanilla extract.
Pour in greased muffin pan/moulds and bake in preheated oven at 180C for 15-20 minutes.

For frosting, whip the cream and add cocoa powder. Set the icing using piping bag over cooled muffins and top with sprinkles.
