Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

The over-ripe banana saga continues. Chocolate chip banana muffins are literally the breakfast of champions.

Yesterday, I did banana pancakes and you are probably wondering how many bananas did this lady buy? Well let me tell you, my husband will only buy fruit from Costco now.

If you have toddlers you know they go through streaks when they will eat the same thing every meal of every day for a month and then it feels like they will never eat it again, especially when you have just replenished said item from the grocery store.

Banana’s for days. Luckily, for me, I love to bake and what not. These muffins were really good, both boys downed them and so we had nothing left to freeze, but they freeze really well.

Ingredients

5 tablespoons salted butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 ripe medium bananas, mashed with a fork
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup regular-size Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line muffin cups with paper liners. This recipe makes about 16 muffins, so you will need to bake in batches.
Whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk the melted butter, mashed banana, egg, and vanilla until blended. Add the banana mixture to the bowl with dry ingredients then use a fork to combine. Do not over mix. Stir in chocolate.
Fill muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake until a toothpick can be inserted and comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.

MUFFIN RECIPES

This is the only way to get chocolate fix in the morning. These were absolutely amazing!! Matt requested these for his brothers farewell breakfast and they were gone the fastest. Mainly because chocolate will never let you down!

Apple Cinnamon is my most favorite everything. I love it in desserts, breakfast foods, dinner, anything. Andie hates when I make apple cinnamon stuff, she complains that that’s all that I know how to make.

These muffins were really good though, so they are worth giving it a try!

Just call me the Muffin man. You know nothing starts the morning off right like a banana muffin!

These were my favorite muffins from the farewell. I hope that you like them too! I also hope Lisa likes them because I’m making them this morning since I have leftover bananas and Lisa Kailey and I had a sleepover! Enjoy!
