How to Make Banana Muffins Chocolate Chips Optional

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, mash the bananas thoroughly. Add the oil, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. If using, gently fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips into the dry ingredients.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The muffins will be golden brown on top.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
