The day after Thanksgiving I do not shop...except to "click here to purchase." Too many crowds for too few real bargains. The day after Thanksgiving I get out all of my holiday cookbooks and start selecting the goodies I will serve over the next few weeks. I get reacquainted with the old standbys and every now and than I will discover a new recipe that I have overlooked. Here is an old standby for everyday or holiday.
Banana Cupcakes
3/4 cup unsalted butter - room temperature
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups mashed bananas (very ripe)
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin pan with cupcake liners.
Beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a tme. Add vanilla and beat well.
Combine dry ingredients and add to butter mixture, alternating with buttermilk (beginning and ending with dry ingredients). Fill liners 3/4 full and bake for 15-18 minutes. Cool completely.
Use Seven-Minute Frosting or Cream Cheese Frosting - garnish with a banana slice or grated chocolate.
