Banana Cupcakes with Honey-Cinnamon Frosting


Ingredients:

For the cupcakes:
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, mel
ted
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 4)
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the frosting:
1 1/4 cups confectioners sugar (I used about 1 3/4 cups)
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

To make the cupcakes, preheat oven to 350°F. Grease the bottoms of a muffin tin. In a medium bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add in the butter, bananas, eggs, and vanilla and mix well. Divide batter evenly between the muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely.

To make the frosting, beat all ingredients in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.

Spread the tops of cupcakes with the frosting and serve. Makes 24 mini-muffins.
