Let’s delve in baking this delicious and moist Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins. Let’s talk about the ingredients needed:
Bananas: Make sure they are super ripe. This helps in making the muffins extra sweet.
Chocolate Chips: Any where between half a cup to one cup is enough.
All purpose flour: Whenever I am baking cake or quick bread that is not gluten free like this Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins, this is the flour I would go for.
Baking powder: This is our raising agent in these muffins.
Granulated white sugar: This is our choice of sweetener for this loaf. It can be castor sugar or regular white sugar or monkfruit sweetener. Incase one wants to use brown sugar or molasses or jaggery, you will achieve another depth of flavor which is still ok.
Eggs: They help in tenderizing the bread as well making it fluffy and moist. They are also the healthiest, most nutrient-dense natural foods on the planet especially if you choose the organic type.
Unsalted butter: This helps moisten the bread. You can as well use melted coconut oil or vegetable oil to moisten the muffins.
Vanilla extract: as usual this is the real deal in adding more flavor to the muffins
Salt: to taste. It helps balance the sweetness of the bananas.
HOW TO MAKE THESE CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA MUFFINS:
Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a 12 cup muffin pan with muffin liners.
In a bowl, add the flour, baking powder, sea salt and sugar. Whisk together till well combined then set aside.
On a flat plate, mash the peeled bananas.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs then add in melted unsalted butter, vanilla extract and the mashed ripe bananas. Mix till well incorporated.
Bring together the dry and wet ingredients and mix till all is incorporated.
Evenly scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cases. You can use an ice cream scoop for this.
Bake for about 20-25 minutes at 180°C until the muffins are fully baked and a toothpick inserted inside comes out clean.
Place on a wire rack to cool for about 5 minutes then remove the muffins from muffin tin.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
