Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and sugar.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently just until the batter comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
  4. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold the chocolate chips into the batter evenly for bursts of chocolate in every bite.
  5. Fill Muffin Cups: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners and fill each cup about ¾ full with the batter to allow room for rising.
  6. Bake the Muffins: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are lightly golden.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best sweetness and moisture.
  • You can substitute half the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier twist.
  • Chocolate chips can be swapped for nuts or dried fruit if preferred.
  • For a dairy-free version, replace butter with coconut oil.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins.
