Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with coconut oil.
Peel the bananas and mash them in a large mixing bowl using a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the brown sugar and chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters 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 just a few moist crumbs.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these gluten-free banana chocolate chip muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
