Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

If your house is anything like mine, it seems like we are always out of bananas or we have several bananas that are too ripe to eat! I have blogged a couple of other recipes for banana muffins, but I think these Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins are my personal favorite.

My daughter loves my Chocolate Banana Muffins made with honey, and these Banana Almond Bran Muffins are also really good.

But thanks to a group of teenagers that we over visiting my son, these Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins were gone in a flash! So, I made them again, and that batch I actually had a chance to enjoy.

I made these both with melted butter and canola oil ( 5 tablespoons of melted butter vs. 1/4 cup of canola oil), both came out great, but I have to say I really did prefer the ones with butter.

You can easily use mini or regular size chocolate chips, but I like to take the regular size chips and give them a slight chop. That way I have tiny little pieces of chocolate throughout the muffin with a surprise larger piece of chocolate here and there.

I hope you enjoy this Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin recipe as much as I do.

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

3 Bananas, mashed

2 Eggs

1/3 cup Milk

1 teaspoon Vanilla

5 tablespoons Butter, melted

2/3 cup Sugar

2 1/2 cups Flour

1 tablespoon Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1/2 cup (or more) Chocolate Chips, lightly chopped if desired

In a large bowl mash the bananas. I use a large fork to do this.  Then add the eggs, milk, vanilla, melted butter and sugar. Mix well.

Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir until just combined.

Put batter into muffin pan. Each cup should be about 2/3 – 3/4 full. I prefer using muffin papers, but you can also spray the pan with non-stick spray if you like. If you are not using the muffin papers and you have a dark muffin pan, you might want to reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees.

Bake the Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins in a 400 degree oven for 16 – 19 minutes.

Cool slightly, serve.
