Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Bananas (ripe, mashed)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.33 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)
- 0.25 cup Optional mix-ins (e.g., chopped nuts or seeds)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.
Add the egg, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet banana mixture. Use a spatula to fold the ingredients together until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and any optional mix-ins like chopped nuts or seeds, if desired.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to a week.
