Banana and chocolate cupcakes

I'm sure you'll love these banana cupcakes . In the recipe you have the option of making them with banana and chocolate, and I definitely recommend it -the touch of the melted chocolate chips inside combines tremendously well with the banana, at the same time that it gives it a rush of flavor and of vice (and in the end, what do we look for when we make confectionery?

Since these cakelets have bananas , it makes them very juicy. It is a recipe that does not take you any time to prepare and the result is worth it.

They are ideal to serve for breakfast or for an individual snack. They are made with the Nordic ware brilliance buntlette moulds , which gives them this beautiful and elegant shape.

You will see that among the ingredients is the Nomu vanilla extract . I find it sensational. It gives an authentic vanilla flavor to my preparations and it is very practical to have a jar in the pantry. You have to be prepared to prepare a delicious dessert at any time!

Treat yourself to these Banana cakes. I'm sure you'll love them. You also have the option of making them in a banana cake or bundt format , simply place the dough in a large tray or bundt pan instead of an individual cake pan.

• To make the banana puree, simply mash them with a fork: go squeezing the bananas to break them up, nothing more than this. As they have to be ripe bananas, you will see that it is very easy for you. You can also do it with the help of a food processor or food processor, but you don't have to dirty anything in this case... Put the bananas in the bowl and just squeeze them.
• Banana and chocolate go together very well, I recommend adding a good handful so that they melt inside the cupcakes, and that each bite is an even more delicious vice.
• IMPORTANT! We suggest you do it in a mini sponge cake format, but you can shape it into a traditional sponge cake by making it in a rectangular tray (for example, with the same quantities, I often do it in Laura Ashley's tray, which is not very big and works great for her Or you can choose to do it in a standard bundt pan, here you will find the most popular ones and others that we like a lot.
