If you’re looking to whip up something delicious and unique, these banana and courgette cupcakes are a fantastic choice. They blend the natural sweetness of ripe bananas with the subtle earthiness of courgettes (also known as zucchini), creating a moist and flavorful treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

To get started, you’ll need a few simple ingredients. Begin with mashed ripe bananas, finely grated courgette, flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder, and a dash of vanilla extract. The combination of bananas and courgettes not only adds great flavor but also boosts the nutritional value of your cupcakes.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a cupcake tray with paper cases.
  2. In a bowl, combine the mashed bananas and grated courgette until well mixed.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy. Gradually add the banana and courgette mixture, folding it in gently.
  4. Sift in the flour and baking powder, mixing until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the cupcakes light and airy.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake cases, filling them about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow them to cool before icing if desired.
