Banana Cupcakes

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, Dr. Oetker Banana Pie Filling & Dessert Mix, caster sugar, Dr. Oetker Baking Powder, Dr. Oetker Vanilla Sugar, and salt until well combined.

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until blended. Gradually whisk in the melted butter and the mashed bananas. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened (do not overmix).

Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and the tops spring back when lightly pressed. Transfer the muffin tin to a wire rack and let the cupcakes cool for 10 minutes. Remove the cupcakes from the tin and let them cool completely on the rack.

Prepare the icing: mix the whipping cream and Dr. Oetker Banana Pie Filling & Dessert Mix in a pan. Stir continuously over medium high heat to prevent burn. When mixture comes to boil and begins to thicken, stir for 1 min. more. Remove from heat and stir well two separate times over a 5 min. period. Let it cool within room temperature.

Whip icing from step 4 with the butter with a mixer until a smooth consistency and spread the topping over each muffin and decorate with one slice of banana each. Cool until served.
