Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup buttermilk room temperature
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas about 2 1/2 bananas
Cream Cheese Frosting
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners and set it aside.
- In a medium bowl sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a mixer use the paddle attachment to beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add in the eggs one at a time and beat until combined. Add the sour cream and vanilla until just combined.
- Add the buttermilk and mashed bananas and mix on low until just combined. Be sure to scrape down the bowl entirely a few times before adding in the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until smooth.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake pan and only fill the cupcake liners 2/3 of the way full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the cupcakes spring bake when lightly pressed. Cool completely before frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting
- In the bowl of a mixer, beat the cream cheese and unsalted butter together until smooth. Scrape down the bowl and beat again for about 10 seconds to make sure everything is completely incorporated.
- Add the vanilla, salt and powdered sugar. Mix on low until the powdered sugar is moistened enough for you to increase the speed without it making a mess. Beat until smooth.
- Use a piping bag to pipe onto the cooled cupcakes, or spread with a knife.
