140g wholemeal flour
2 tsp baking powder
50g golden caster sugar
1 medium egg
50g melted butter , cooled
125ml semi-skimmed milk

Tips:

  • Ensure ripe bananas: Use ripe bananas with brown spots for a sweeter and more flavorful result. Overripe bananas are also easier to mash.
  • Ripe papaya: Choose ripe papaya that is soft and slightly yielding when pressed. Avoid papaya that is too hard or has a green tinge.
  • Creaming method: Properly cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This step incorporates air into the mixture, resulting in a moist and tender cupcake.
  • Folding in dry ingredients: When adding the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, do so gently and in batches. Overmixing can result in a tough cupcake.
  • Muffin liners: Use muffin liners to easily remove the cupcakes from the muffin pan. Alternatively, grease and flour the muffin cups.
  • Baking time: Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry cupcakes.
  • Cooling: Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting. This helps the frosting to set properly.
  • Frosting: Use a simple buttercream or cream cheese frosting for a classic flavor combination. You can also experiment with different frosting flavors to complement the banana and papaya flavors.

Conclusion:

The banana papaya cupcakes are a delicious and tropical treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist and tender crumb, sweet banana and papaya flavors, and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, this recipe is easy to follow and yields delicious results.
