Gluten Free Banana and Cinnamon Cupcakes

Back to all recipes.
Overripe bananas are just perfect for gluten free cakes, the tend to add a little extra puff to sponge. While this recipe isn't Vegan, bananas can be used in place of eggs to make Vegan cakes, this recipe however uses both. Banana and cinnamon paired together are a gorgeous flavour combo, a bit different from your regular run of the mill banana cake.
