Ingredients for Banana And Chocolate Chip Muffins

  • All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 cup chocolate chips OR 1 cup chopped walnuts

How to Make Banana And Chocolate Chip Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  3. Add the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips (or chopped walnuts).
  7. Fill the muffin liners about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
