  • Total Time: 28-30 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for enhanced sweetness and moisture.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy.
  • You can add nuts or dried fruit for extra texture and flavor.
