Recipe Notes
Make sure the banana you are using should be well ripe.
Use only small sized banana otherwise take half banana.
Beat the banana with oil and sugar until a gel type texture at high speed.
Purpose to use banana here is to replace egg and give more sponge to cake.
You may also add 0.25 cups of chocolate chips to the batter to give more richness to the cake.
Or just sprinkle some chocolate chips on muffin before putting in a oven to bake.
Make sure your baking powder is not too old otherwise cupcake will not rise well.
It is advised to sift all the dry ingredients together for 2-3 times for fluffy and soft result, as it helps to incorporate air in batter.
Keep the preheated oven and lined mold ready before proceeding for cupcake batter.
Pour batter immediately in mold and then put in the preheated oven.
Do not let mix stand outside of oven for long, it may result in hard cake.
Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before use.
Decorate the cupcake in your own way.
Mine cupcakes baked in 12 minutes your may take more or less, all depends on weather condition, type of ingredients and type of oven used, so I suggest you to check after 11 minutes, otherwise bake for another 2-3 minutes as require.
You may also bake a chocolate cake using the same batter, it will just take more time to bake, around 30-35 minutes.
