Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl combine the bananas, oil, eggs, jam, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Use a potato masher and mix together smashing the bananas into the the other ingredients.
- Add the flour and stir just to combine.
- Grease you muffin tin or insert baking cups and fill with the batter.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until a pick comes out clean when inserted. Allow to cool at least 1 hour on a cooling rack.
- In the meantime make the frosting by whisking together the Greek cream cheese yogurt spread and the jam. Refrigerate until later use.
- One the cupcakes are cooled pipe or spread the frosting on top.
- If you have a small pastry tip load the bag with the remaining jam, if not put in to a sandwich bag and snip off a small corner.
- Make a swirl on top of each cupcake.
- Serve or store in the refrigerator until time to serve.
Notes
I made the unsweetened strawberry jam by combining 3 TBSP instant pectin and 1 lb of (thawed, but cold) frozen strawberries in the food processor. I then allowed it to refrigerate overnight before using it in this recipe.Similar Recipes:
