How to Make Banana Blueberry Or Chocolate Chip Muffins

  2. In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (optional), 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup plain yogurt.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup blueberries OR 1 cup chocolate chips.
  7. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 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.
