Easy Homemade Banana and Coffee Chocolate Cup Cakes
Easy, moist, perfect and delicious Banana and Coffee Chocolate Cup Cakes that everyone will crave for.
Equipment
cupcake tin
ice-cream scoop
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup baking cocoa powder - unsweetened
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 large bananas - mashed
- 1 cup warm coffee or water
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 tbsp. white distilled vinegar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil or light olive oil
- 1 large egg - room temperature
- 2 tsp. vanila extract
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 350°F and place the rack the center of the oven.
- Fill a 12-count muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together dry ingredients, breaking up most of the cocoa clumps.
- In a second mixing bowl, whisk together wet ingredients and the mashed bananas.
- Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients and whisk just until the ingredients come together and no dry streaks remain. Batter will be a little loose and lumpy.
- Use a Ice-cream scoop or a spoon to portion batter, filling each cup 2/3 full (do not over-fill). Bake 20 minutes - that was the perfect time for me or up to 22 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center, comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in the pan then transfer to a rack to cool completely to room temperature before frosting.
Notes
- do not over-fill the cup cake liners
- Bake 20-22 minutes depends on the oven you have
- you can freeze them if you like without frosting. To defrost leave in the fridge overnight
