Banana Coconut Chocolate Chunk Cupcakes

I made up this cupcake recipe this weekend when I was bored. The ingredients are a little bit random because I just used whatever I could find in my fridge/pantry which lead to surprisingly delicious results.

Ingredients

2 eggs

1 banana

1 cup wheat flour

½ cup almond meal

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup brown sugar

2/3 stick of butter (room temp)

½ cup shredded coconut

 ½ 4 oz. semi sweet chocolate bar (chopped)

1.       In a medium size bowl mix together all wheat flour, almond meal, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

2.       In a separate bowl,  mash banana and eggs together.  Add butter and mix.  Add sugar and mix with an electric mixer until smooth. 

3.       Slowly add in dry ingredients to banana mixture, mixing with electric mixer. When combined and smooth, fold in coconut and chocolate chunks with a spatula.

4.       Pour into cupcake tin, dividing the batter evenly.  This recipe should yield 12 cupcakes with a little bit left over.

5.       Bake for 18 minutes at 375 F or until a toothpick comes out clean.

6.       Top with Chocolate cream cheese frosting.
