Method

Prep:20min  ›  Cook:20min  ›  Ready in:40min 

1. Preheat oven to 190 C / Gas 5.
2. Sift all the dry ingredients into a bowl and mix together.
3. Put the butter and vanilla in a seperate bowl and beat together until it's creamy.
4. Gradually add sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, add the eggs one at a time beating each time.
5. Add a bit of milk at a time, then a bit of dry mixture, then a bit of banana to the cream mixture - beat well each time and keep doing this until you only have one bowl of mixture!
6. Fill cupcake tray or cases 1/2 full as they rise quite well, bake for about 20mins. Leave to cool in tray for 5 - 10 mins, I put mine in silicon cases and if you pull them out too early theyre a bit wobbly! Taste good with peanut butter cream.
