Banana Raisin Walnut Cupcakes

With the remnant bananas, I baked some cupcakes using Amy Beh’s Banana Raisin Walnut Cupcakes recipe. I halved her recipe and reduced the sugar and butter and I used one egg instead of one and half eggs. Haha, I always make sure that I reduced the sugar in any recipe and looks like this has become a habit already. I used hazelnuts instead of walnuts coz I ran out of walnuts . I used muffin cases instead of cupcakes since I have a lot of these paper cases in my pantry.

As the cakes turned browned , the aroma of coffee and buttery nutty smell filled the whole kitchen and my dining hall. Surprisingly, the cupcakes turned out MOIST and soft despite the fact that I reduced the sugar and butter and eggs.

I managed to get 4 muffin sized cakes. I kept one for Daddy for his breakfast , one for myself and the other two I gave to my colleagues. See, how wonderful it is to be my colleagues ! (“,)
