The week did not start well for me, I woke up with a viral fever on Monday morning with weak limbs and achy body, I felt lousy as all I could do was sleep and sleep and sleep almost the whole day for the past few days! How miserable!!! Felt better this morning and decided to bake my family's favourite banana cake but in cupcake form. We simply love the ultra soft and fluffy texture! Chill it in the fridge and it is so moist and fluffy, taste even better! Those who have tried it love it just as much as we do and I hope you like it too!
病了好几天,今天感觉好一点就做了家人最爱吃的超柔软又蓬松的香蕉蛋糕。强力推荐给大家,希望你们也一样喜欢!
Super Soft Fluffy Banana Cupcake
超柔软蓬松香蕉小蛋糕
(Recipe adapted and modified from chef Richard Goh's Banana Cake, 中文食谱由Baking Taitai翻译)超柔软蓬松香蕉小蛋糕
Ingredients: (makes 19 small cupcakes with 6cm diameter or 8" round cake)
3 eggs (55g each, room temperature)
125g brown sugar
200g riped bananas (cut into small pieces)
150g cake flour (I used Blue Jacket unbleached cake flour)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
100g sunflower oil
Weigh and prepare ingredients before you start. 食材先称量,准备好就可以开始了。 |
食材: (可做19个直径6厘米的小蛋糕或8寸圆形蛋糕)
3个 鸡蛋(一粒55克,室温)
125克 赤砂糖
200克 熟香蕉(切成小块)
150克 低筋面粉 (我用水手牌超级蛋糕粉)
1/2小茶匙 发粉
1/4小茶匙 苏打粉
100克 向日葵油
Method 方法:
1. Sieve the cake flour, baking powder and baking soda together twice before setting aside.
1。低筋面粉,发粉和苏打粉一起过筛两次,备用。
2. Use an electric mixer to whisk the eggs and sugar at maximum speed till ribbon stage before mixing in the banana until well combined. ( This will ensure a light and fluffy texture. )
2。用电动搅拌器,最高速度,搅拌鸡蛋和糖,直到明显出现纹路状,再加入香蕉继续搅拌均匀。 (蛋糕的质感会比较蓬松)
3. Fold in the flour using your bare and clean hand for about 2 to 3 times. (using hand instead of spatula will ensure flour is fold in evenly.)
3。加入面粉后,用干净的手轻轻地从容器底部刮起2~3次。(用手比用硅胶刮刀能把面粉更均匀的融入。)
4. Add in the oil (at this stage, it is alright when you still see the flour, the purpose is to let the flour absorb the oil) and continue folding with your hand and mix well till batter is shiny and flowing.
4。再加入油,(这时,您还会看到面粉,就是要让这些面粉把油吸收),继续用手将面糊搅拌直到面糊有光泽。
5. Scoop the batter into the muffin cups 80% full.
5。把面糊倒入小纸模八分满。
I added some chocolate rice on top. 我在面糊上放了少许的巧克力米。 |
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 160 degrees top and bottom heat, for 17~20 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
6。在预热烤箱以160摄氏度上下火烘烤17~20分钟或直到竹签插入中心没有沾粘就可以取出。
6。在预热烤箱以160摄氏度上下火烘烤17~20分钟或直到竹签插入中心没有沾粘就可以取出。
Cupcake form - Chill it in the fridge for better taste, it is so moist and fluffy especially using Blue Jacket flour which has high water absorbency! 杯子蛋糕- 冷藏后更好吃,又湿润又柔软蓬松尤其是用了水手牌的面粉具有高水分吸收力! |
If using recipe to bake an 8 inch round cake, baking time is about 40~45 minutes, or test with skewer comes out clean. 食谱如果用来烤8寸圆形蛋糕,烘烤时间是大约40~45分钟\或竹签插入中心抽出没有沾黏就代表烤熟了。 |

The cooking temperature as suggested in all my recipes serve as a guideline. Every oven has different thermostat, you may have to adjust the temperature and timing to suit your oven. Different brand of ingredients have different composites, thus there may be a slight difference in the end result. 食谱里的烘烤温度和时间只是供参考,每一架烤炉的恒温器都不同,请自己调适。不同品牌的材料有不同的复合材料,所以最终成品有可能稍有不同。

Hi Cheryl, baking soda is used in this muffin. Will there be a difference in the texture of the muffin if I omit baking soda. I noticed that sometimes baking soda is part of the recipe in online recipe. I would like to seek your advise on the purpose of baking soda on the cake baking. Under what circumstances must we add baking soda. Also, some cookies recipes asked for baking soda and some do not. When should baking soda be included, I am confused. Thanks
Hi Amanda, baking soda is added to baked goods to make them rise. Recipes that use baking soda as a leavening agent also contain an acidic ingredient, such as lemon juice, milk, honey or brown sugar. When you mix together the baking soda, acidic ingredient and liquid you'll get bubbles of carbon dioxide gas. The gas bubbles expand in the heat of the oven and rise, giving you a fluffy cake or light cookies. If baking soda is omitted, the baked goods may be dense and not rise well.
Hi Cheryl,
Hope you're much much better now.
Oh these banana cupcakes looked so yummy-licious!
Hi Cheryl, many thanks for your prompt reply. But the above recipe uses baking powder which is a leavening agent. Why is there a need to use 2 leavening agent? Is cake flour = plain flour (remove 2tbsp) + 2tbsp corn flour ( I found this online)? Bcos I don't have cake flour, not sure if that is a correct substitute. Can I use white sugar instead of brown sugar with the same amount? Thanks
Hi Cheryl
Pls advise where can I find your cooking lessons online? Thanks
Christine
希望妳早日康复哦
这蛋糕看妳极力推荐,肯定不能错过,食谱收藏了,谢谢
Hi cheryl
I've tried your banana cupcake this morning - it raises very nicely in the oven but when I removed from the pan and leave it to cool, the center part sank in a bit which is not like yours still raises nicely as picture shown. Please tell me where goes wrong? Appreciated your early reply. Thanks
Christine
Hi Cheryl
Is me again, Christine - Btw, despite the cupcake sank a little in the center but the texture is really soft and fluffy as what you mention!
Hi Cheryl,
I hope that you are feeling better now. The recovery stage of any sickness is always difficult but I see that you are in your full swing again. These cupcakes look awesome :D
Zoe
Hi Sis, glad you are feeling better. I finally had some very ripened bananas last week but didn't manage to squeeze in time to bake anything...
These cupcakes look gorgeous!! :)
Hi Amanda, the author of this recipe must have tried out using both leavening to achieve favorable results. I can't explain much as I have not studied the science of baking. I am just a homebaker who likes to try out recipe as well as tweaking recipes for a healthier bake. I have not made my own cake flour before so I can't advise if what you've read online will work. Yes you can replaced with white sugar. :)
Thanks Karen, I've recovered well.
Hi Christine, I don't hold regular baking class on my own. I only conduct baking workshops upon invitation by LessonsGoWhere to be a guest blogger chef. I will usually announce on my Baking Taitai's FB page about the workshop, there may be one upcoming class on 28 March, do keep a look out on my FB page if you are interested.
Fion 谢谢妳,我好多了!这香蕉蛋糕食谱值得一试,好多读者试了告诉我非常柔软蓬松又好吃!
Hi Christine, you may have overmixed the batter or underbake the cakes thus causing the centre to sink.
Yes indeed, this recipe produces a soft & fluffy texture cake, chilled it for a better taste! As I used the premium blue jacket cake flour, the texture is super moist too!
Thank you Zoe, yes back to full swing! ;)
Thanks Sis, you must be really busy with work, take care ya!
Hi Cheryl:)
Thank goodness you were feeling well enough to make these yummy looking Banana Cupcakes. Hope you continue to get well:)
Thank you so much for sharing...Pinning!
Thanks Louise, this banana cupcake recipe is a great keeper, hope you like it! .:)
Hi Cheryl,
I love soft & fluffy cakes too, what's more if there's bananas. Hope you're feeling much better now, please take care. Thank you for linking this post to LTU:)
Hi Cheryl
Thanks for this recipe posted. It's so soft & moist this banana cup cake. My doremi like it so much.
Hi Cheryl, the cuppies sink a bit at the center and shrink at the side. What have I done wrong?
Hi Andrea, your oven inner temp may be too hot, check with an oven thermometer for accurate readings. Or you may have taken it out before it is cooked through. Or you may have over beaten or over-mix the batter.
Thanks for your response. I used oven thermometer, baked at 160 for 17mins. Besides, the top layer of the cuppies turned wet and sticky in the afternoon. Any idea why?
If surface turns wet & sticky, means it's not cooked through before you remove from the oven.
Ok, will take note for next round, thanks.
Hi
Can I substitute the banana with another fruits? For eg, blueberries? Or chocolate?
Coco.
Hi Corrine Sin, you can't just substitute this recipe with another fruit or chocolate as baking is different from cooking. You will have to experiment yourself, every ingredient is different in the composites, it is through experiments and tests that one can come up with the right proportions of each ingredient.
