Don’t let your old bananas go to waste when you could create these sweet cupcakes iced with passionfruit goodness.

Ingredients

White self-raising flour

1½ cup(s), (225g)

Bicarbonate of soda

½ tsp

Brown sugar

⅔ cup(s), (150g)

Reduced fat oil spread

80 g, melted

Banana

1½ cup(s), ripe, mashed

Egg(s)

2 medium, lightly whisked

Icing sugar

1 cup(s), (160g)

Passionfruit(s)

3 tsp, pulp

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan-forced. Line 18 holes of 2 (⅓-cup/80ml capacity) muffin tins with paper cases.
  2. Combine flour, bicarbonate of soda and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Combine spread, banana and eggs in a jug. Add banana mixture to flour mixture and stir to combine.

  4. Meanwhile, sift icing sugar into a small bowl. Stir in enough passionfruit pulp to make a smooth spreadable paste. Spoon over top of cooled cakes. Serve.
