Description
Just take a few store bought ingredients, jazz up the mix and bam, a super yummy treat. Bonus, if you leave off the frosting, you have yourself a muffin 🙂 . They are crazy good and simple too. Bonus, they’re also easy to make g-free.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box of yellow cake mix (we use gluten-free)
- ½ cup of water
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons veggie oil
- 1 banana
- 1 (20 oz) can of pineapple tidbits, drained
- 1 cup of chopped pecans
- 1 can of cream cheese frosting to garnish (or leave off for a muffin!)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line your muffin tin with cupcake liners (I can get 2 dozen out of this recipe). Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine your cake mix, water, eggs and vegetable oil with an electric mixer. Next, beat in one banana (I cut it into pieces before adding to the batter) followed by your drained can of pineapple tidbits. Finally, stir in your chopped pecans.
- Add this batter to your prepared muffin tins and pop in your oven.
- Bake about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before frosting.
Notes
Simply use a gf yellow cake mix to make this recipe gluten-free. Store your frosted cupcakes in the fridge when not enjoying.
