🥘 Ingredients

11 items

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 medium ripe bananas
• 1 large egg

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

3. In a separate medium bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and milk, and whisk until combined.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

5. Fold in the blueberries or chocolate chips, depending on your preference, using a spatula.

6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

9. Enjoy your Banana Blueberry or Chocolate Chip Muffins warm or at room temperature!
