Servings: 12
Ingredients
- All-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups
- Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Ripe bananas
- 3, mashed
- Unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup, melted
- Granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup
- Egg
- 1, large
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This will be your dry mixture.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. This will be your wet mixture.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the muffins tough.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Using a scoop or a large spoon, fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with batter.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. This is a classic test to ensure your muffins are fully baked.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. This helps them hold their shape.
- Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the bottoms of the muffins from becoming soggy.
