Ingredients

- Milk – 1 tablespoon
- Cinnamon – 1 teaspoon
- Baking Powder – 1 teaspoon

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C, ensuring a slightly lower heat as the fruity cake needs more time to bake and handle excess moisture without burning. Prepare two cupcake pans, lining each with cupcake liners or parchment squares.
- In a bowl, mix room temperature butter with sugar until smooth. Add the beaten eggs one at a time to create a creamy mixture.
- Peel and slice the ripe bananas. Mash or blend until it forms a paste. Add milk and blend further, then combine it with the butter-sugar mixture.
- In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. 5. Add this mix to the final batter, stirring until well combined.
- Peel and dice the apples into small cubes. Distribute the batter into cupcake pans; it doesn’t rise much, so be generous. Finally, place apple cubes on top of each batter.
- Bake for about 30 to 40 minutes until they’re all perfectly cooked. Test by inserting a toothpick into the center of a cupcake; if it comes out clean, they’re ready!
- Remove from the pans and allow them to cool before enjoying. Bon appétit!
