Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Muffin liners (optional)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cooling rack

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips semisweet or milk chocolate

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease the tin.
  • Mash the Bananas
  • In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth but slightly chunky.
  • Mix the Dry Ingredients
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Combine Wet Ingredients
  • In another bowl, mix the melted butter (or oil) with the brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, stirring until fully combined. Fold in the mashed bananas.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
  • Fold in the Chocolate Chips
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  • Fill the Muffin Tin
  • Spoon the muffin batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ of the way full.
  • Bake
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The tops should be golden brown.
  • Cool
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
