Ingredients

  • 2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar*
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • ¾ cup mashed bananas about 2-3 brown bananas
  • ¼ cup milk buttermilk preferred
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a muffin tin with muffin papers. You'll end up with 12-14 muffins total.

  • In a second large bowl whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Whisk in the mashed bananas and milk.
  • Gently fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Be careful not to over mix. 
  • When the flour is about 80% folded in, fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Spoon the muffin batter into your prepared muffin pan until each cavity is filled to the top. Optionally sprinkle a few chocolate chips on top of each muffin. 
  • Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean (except for melted chocolate).
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan, then remove from the pan and continue cooling on a wire rack for 5-10 minutes before eating.

Notes
