For an extra nutty flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping. If you don't have xanthan gum, you can omit it, but the texture may be slightly more crumbly. These cakes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat gently in the microwave for a warm treat. Consider adding chocolate chips for a mocha version!

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by greasing each cup thoroughly. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, 3/4 cup of dark brown sugar, milk, softened butter, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Use a stand mixer (or a hand mixer) on medium speed to blend these wet ingredients until smooth. (5 minutes)
03
StepGradually add the gluten-free baking mix, chopped pecans, xanthan gum, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. (3 minutes)
04
StepCarefully spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Sprinkle the additional brown sugar (about 1/4 cup, or to taste) evenly over the tops of the batter in each cup. (7 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean. (20 minutes)
06
StepRemove the muffin tin from the oven and let the mini cakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm for the best taste. (10 minutes)
