Instructions

  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and mashed bananas.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before filling.
  8. In a small bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Once the cupcakes are cool, use a small knife or cupcake corer to create a hole in the center of each cupcake. Fill each with the cream cheese mixture.
  10. For the frosting, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream, beating until light and fluffy.
  11. Pipe the frosting onto the filled cupcakes, then top each with a banana slice and sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon.

Notes

Choosing ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cupcakes will be. Look for bananas with plenty of brown spots.
Filling the cupcakes: Make sure the cupcakes are completely cool before filling, or the cream cheese mixture will melt.
Frosting piping: If you don’t have a piping bag, you can fill a ziplock bag and snip off one corner for a DIY solution.
