For Cake Batter:
1-1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup pecan halves, toasted and finely chopped
1/2 cup sour cream
2 eggs
6 tablespoon vegetable cooking oil
1 medium banana
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
For topping:
50gm cream cheese
50gm butter
50gm brown sugar
Stir chopped nuts in together with all dry ingredients,
stir in eggs, sour cream and oil,
add crushed pineapples and mashed banana, blend well but a few lumps are fine.
Bake in 350C oven for 25mins (for cupcakes) 35 mins for other pans
cupcakes will be very moist hot out of oven,
but texture improves after cooling down 10mins in pan and later on rack
Pipe topping on just before serving
