The last of the banana's

I had the last banana that was just a little too black to eat so decided to make some super simple cupcakes so it didn't end up in the bin. I waste so much money chucking food in the bin because it has went off just because I don't plan dinners well. Nothing fancy, especially not the decorating! Tasty though! In my mind part of your five a day too :)

Makes 8 large cupcakes or 12 small ones.

Preheat oven to about 190 degrees.

You will need:

114g self raising flour

114g sugar (I used light brown sugar as that was what was in my cupboard)

114g butter (I used flora spread)

2 eggs

1 banana

Make up some butter icing for the topping - I do this by taste so no idea what measurements I used.

Some little goodies to decorate.

Whisk the sugar and butter together until smooth.

Add the eggs and whisk (do this one at a time).

Sift the flour into the mixture a little at a time and fold into the mixture.

Fold in the mashed banana.

Put even spoonfuls into your cases (I used Muffin cases because I made 8 big cakes).

Whack it into the oven for 15 mins.

Once ready allow to cool then add icing and decorate.

See! Simple, easy and tasty. No fancy nancy here!
