Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 very ripe large bananas, peeled
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F Line 12 standard (1/3-cup) muffin cups with paper liners. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Mash bananas with fork in another medium bowl until smooth. Mix sour cream and vanilla into bananas.

Add flour mixture in 3 additions alternately with banana-sour cream mixture in 2 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating just until blended after each addition. Divide batter among prepared muffin cups (generous 1/4 cup for each).

I've tried many banana cupcake recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cupcakes are moist and flavorful, and the frosting is the perfect complement.
