Ingredients:

Serving

4 ripe bananas , thoroughly mashed
1/2 large carrots or 1/2 zucchini, grated
6 tbsp butter, softened at room temp
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oat bran
1 tbsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground cloves (or pumpkin spice )
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1 cup low-fat cream cheese, softened at room temp
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup honey
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp orange zest

Directions:

In a bowl, thoroughly mix together the mashed bananas and grated carrot or zucchini.
In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter through vanilla with an electric mixer.
Combine flour through ginger and mix into the butter mixture with your mixer on low speed until thoroughly blended.
Add the banana mixture and chopped nuts and stir with large wooden spoon until completely blended into batter.
Spray 12 standard sized cupcake/muffin pan cups or 12 baby bundt pans with nonstick cooking spray, making sure to coat thoroughly. Divide the batter among the cups.
Bake at 375°F about 20 minutes (until they pass the clean toothpick test).
Remove from pans and let cool before glazing.
Glaze: Whisk together glaze ingredients until smooth and thick.
Use about 1 Tbs glaze per cupcake (using about 3/4 cup in all) or more on the baby bundts since you're coating all sides, not just the top.
