Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins: A Simple Recipe Guide

Banana chocolate chip muffins are a delightful treat, perfect for breakfast or a quick snack. Here’s an easy, step-by-step guide to baking these moist, flavorful delights.

Ingredients:

- 2 ripe bananas, mashed

- 1/3 cup melted butter

- 3/4 cup sugar

- 1 large egg, beaten

- 1 tsp vanilla extract

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 tsp baking soda

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla. Stir until smooth.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined—*do not overmix*.

4. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips evenly.

5. Bake: Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

6. Cool: Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Enjoy these warm, tender muffins on their own or with a pat of butter. They stay fresh for up to 3 days in an airtight container—though they rarely last that long!
