Ingredients

12 servings

  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 very ripe bananas
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • ½ cup smooth peanut butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Mash bananas with a fork in another medium bowl until smooth. Mix sour cream and vanilla extract into bananas.
  • Combine sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add egg and egg yolk and beat until well blended. Add flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with banana mixture, beating batter briefly after each addition until just blended. Scoop batter into the prepared muffin cups, adding about a generous 1/4 cup in each.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, sift powdered sugar into a large bowl. Add cream cheese, butter, and peanut butter; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread or pipe frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.
