Accompaniment

Description

I've never really used fruit in recipes before but I gave this a shot and it's lovely, it has a really nice light banana sweetness and the icing is gorgeous. Enjoy :)

Method

1
- PREHEAT OVEN TO 170c
- PUT FLOUR, SUGAR, BAKING POWDER, CINNAMON, SALT AND BUTTER IN A BOWL AND MIX WITH ELECTRIC WHISK UNTIL IT IS GRAINY ALMOST LIKE SAND.
- ADD THE MILK AND EGGS AND MIX WELL, IT IS QUITE RUNNY AT THIS STAGE BUT DON'T WORRY THATS FINE.
- ADD THE MASHED BANANA AND MIX IN WITH A SPOON NOT THE WHISK, IT TAKES SOME MIXING AS IT LUMPS TOGETHER BUT THE MIX WILL BECOME STICKY WHEN FULLY MIXED.
- SPOON THE MIX INTO 12 PAPER CASES AND WHACK IN THE OVEN FOR 20MINS OR UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN.

ICING

DEAD SIMPLE WHACK ALL INGREDIENTS EXCEPT MILK INTO A BOWL MIX WITH WHISK UNTIL SMOOTH THE LONGER YOU MIX THE LIGHTER THE ICING, ADD MILK AND CONTINUE TO MIX UNTIL NICE AND LIGHT, DONE, ONCE CUPCAKES HAVE COOLED YOU CAN ICE.

THE MILK MAKES VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE, I THINK IT MAKES THE ICING LIGHT AND PERHAPS A LITTLE EASIER TO ICE THE CUPCAKES WITH.
