Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
Instructions
- Start by in a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly. Add the melted butter, and stir in the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the baking soda, salt, and flour. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, folding gently to avoid overmixing, which keeps the muffins tender.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution, to give those irresistible chocolatey pockets in each muffin.
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray. Divide the batter evenly among the compartments, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for the sweetest flavor and best texture.
- If you want healthier options, try replacing white flour with whole wheat or adding chopped nuts.
- Chill the muffins before serving for enhanced flavor and texture.
