Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Ripe bananas
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Light brown sugar
- 75 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 60 milliliters Milk
- 150 grams Chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or a potato masher.
Add the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well until the ingredients are fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in two or three batches, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins.
Stir in the milk to thin the batter slightly, making sure it is evenly incorporated.
Fold in the chocolate chips gently, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top of the muffins.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
