Why You'll Love These Muffins

  1. Irresistible Flavour: The combination of sweet bananas and semi-sweet chocolate chips creates a flavour explosion in every bite.

  2. Healthy Twist: With bananas as the star ingredient, these muffins offer natural sweetness and essential nutrients. Plus, they’re perfect for using up overripe bananas!

  3. Simple Ingredients: This recipe uses common pantry staples, making it easy to whip up a batch anytime.


Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup sugar

  • ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted

  • 2 flax eggs

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed

  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.

  2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the sugar and melted butter until well blended. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.

  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.

  5. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.

  6. Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. The tops should be golden brown.

  7. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.


Tips for Perfect Muffins

  • Use Overripe Bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be. Overripe bananas with lots of spots are perfect for this recipe.

  • Don't Overmix: To keep your muffins tender, mix the batter until just combined. Overmixing can result in dense muffins.

  • Add Extra Chocolate: For an extra touch of indulgence, sprinkle a few additional chocolate chips on top of the muffins before baking.


Final Thoughts

These Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins are a delightful treat that combines the best of both worlds—fruity sweetness and chocolatey goodness. Whether you’re enjoying them for breakfast or as an afternoon snack, they’re sure to be a hit with everyone. So, grab those overripe bananas and get baking!


Happy Muffin Making!
