Ingredients
- All-purpose flour: 2 1/4 cups
- Baking soda: 1 teaspoon
- Salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- Ripe bananas, mashed: 3 medium
- Granulated sugar: 3/4 cup
- Brown sugar, packed: 1/2 cup
- Eggs: 2 large
- Vegetable oil: 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- Chocolate chips: 1 cup
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, mash the bananas thoroughly. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Step 4: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Step 5: Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
- Step 6: Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
- For a warm, melty chocolate chip experience, microwave a muffin for 10-15 seconds before serving.
- Serve these delectable muffins with a dollop of whipped cream or a dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch of elegance.
- Chef's secret: For even more banana flavor, use slightly overripe bananas with dark spots; they'll add sweetness and moisture!
