Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 80 grams unsalted butter
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 40 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Peel the ripe bananas and mash them in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop, then let it cool slightly.
Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture, being careful not to overmix. Stir just until no dry streaks remain.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips to evenly distribute them throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
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 the chocolate banana muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
