BANANA CUPCAKES WITH HONEY-CINNAMON FROSTING



Banana Cupcakes With Honey-Cinnamon Frosting image

A wonderful way to use up your over ripe bannas. These are like a cross between a muffin and a cupcake. You could serve them for breakfast plain, or add the frosting for a sweet treat. Or if you don't like your cupcakes too sweet, you might consider using a cream cheese frosting instead. This only makes 12 cupcakes and comes together very quickly. From Martha Stewart.
