Peanut Butter Banana Cupcakes

• portions: 16 items
• temps actif: 25 minutes
• temps total: 45 minutes

Ingrédients

240g self-raising flour

140g golden caster sugar

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

240g egg-free mayonnaise

2 large or 3 small ripe bananas , mashed

1 tsp vanilla extract

25g vegan dark chocolate chip

80g vegan margarine

250g icing sugar

25ml vegan milk (we used almond milk)

2 tbsp smooth peanut butter

Instructions

Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3½. Line muffin tins with 16 cases. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, ½ tsp salt and bicarbonate of soda. In a second bowl or a jug, mix the mayonnaise, mashed bananas and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a spoon until just combined (don’t overmix or your cupcakes will be heavy). Spoon the mixture into the cases and bake for 20 mins.

When the cupcakes come out of the oven, sprinkle the chocolate chips over – they will melt and then harden again, so don’t touch them.

For the icing, combine the vegan margarine and icing sugar in an electric mixer, then add the vegan milk and continue to mix on a slow speed until completely combined. Turn the mixer up and combine for a further 3 mins. Finally, stir in the peanut butter. Pipe or simply spread the icing on top of the cakes. Store in an airtight container and eat within 2 days.
