Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
These are on repeat in my house and for good reason. They don’t have too much oil or sugar, and the sweetness from the bananas really comes through. They’re school safe and contain chocolate so…win-win for everyone!
Makes 12.
Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas (very spotted or brown on the outside)
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°
In a large mixing bowl, add bananas, egg, sugar, and oil. Using a fork, mash all the ingredients together until there are very little lumps left.
To the same bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gently mix until almost combined.
Add chocolate chips and finish mixing. Do not over mix!
Scoop into a prepared muffin tin. I like to use parchment paper cups or silicone muffin cups.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are very slightly browned or spring back when touched.
Allow to cool and enjoy!
These muffins will stay great in a sealed container on the counter for up to a week. If they last that long.
