- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2-3 medium bananas)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set this dry mixture aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and sugar until combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Stir in the mashed bananas and milk until just mixed. Do not overmix.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. A few lumps are acceptable.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use very ripe, spotty bananas for the best flavor and moisture.
- For a bakery style top, sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the batter before baking.
- You can substitute brown sugar for granulated sugar for a deeper molasses flavor.
