BANANA CARDAMOM CAKE (OR CUPCAKES) (WW)



Banana Cardamom Cake (Or Cupcakes) (Ww) image

We made these into cupcakes and skipped the frosting -- if using the frosting this equals 5 WW points. I figure without the frosting this is 4 pts/serving. Recipe source: WW Heathy Cooking Basics.

BANANA CUPCAKES

This recipe was given to me by my mother, and I've since handed it down to my daughters. The moist cupcakes are topped with frosting that comes together in no time. And if you'd like even more banana taste, stir some mashed banana into it. -Wanda Thole, Leonard, Minnesota

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

140g wholemeal flour
2 tsp baking powder
50g golden caster sugar
1 medium egg
50g melted butter , cooled
125ml semi-skimmed milk
2 small ripe bananas , 1 mashed, 1 sliced
140g white chocolate , roughly chopped
cinnamon , for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Line a bun tin with 8 paper cases. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and sugar with a pinch of salt.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg, melted butter and milk for 20 secs; add the mashed banana and beat for a further 5 secs until everything is nicely mixed.
  • Pour the banana mix into the flour and fold everything together. Once it is almost combined, add 85g of the white chocolate - the mixture will still look a little lumpy. Spoon the cake mix into the paper cases and bake for 18-20 mins until golden and risen, and a skewer inserted comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining white chocolate over a pan of barely simmering water. Allow to cool a bit, then spread on top of the cakes. Add a couple of slices of banana and sprinkle with cinnamon.
