Wished I would've read the reviews before I made these because they were so over-baked. Set the timer for 35 minutes ( somewhere in middle of 30-40 minutes as per recipe) but I bet they only needed 20-25 minutes. They are definitely more like muffins than cupcakes and I didn't care for the olive oil taste. Could be because I have very good olive oil and it really came through, but still if I did make them again I would try coconut oil. Coconut and banana is a good combo though!

These were so tasty, and I love the texture! They settle my sweet tooth without killing my diet. These are more like muffins than cupcakes, though - beware that the batter is pretty thick. I was afraid they weren't going to turn out right, but 20 minutes in the oven was all they needed. Thanks for the easy recipe! I will be making this often.

Very delicious. The only thing I am going to do is add a creamy frosting on top.
