Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 75 grams unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 120 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 80 grams chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with baking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
