How to Make Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and lightly grease.
In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
Whisk in 1 large egg, 1/2 cup milk (any kind), 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup packed brown sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional).
Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
