Ingredients

  • 1 Egg large
  • 1 ½ cups Bananas mashed (about 3 bananas)
  • ¼ cup Milk or buttermilk
  • ⅓ cup Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Canola Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • ¼ cup Baking Cocoa Powder
  • 1 ¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ cup Mini Chocolate Chips if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, beat an egg.
  • Add the milk, canola oil, vanilla, and honey. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir just until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips if you are using them.
  • Scoop the muffin batter into a muffin pan that has been coated with non-stick spray or lined with muffin papers.
  • Bake the muffins for 16 - 20 minutes. The muffins are done when you insert a toothpick in the center of one of the muffins and it comes out clean.
  • Cool slightly, then remove the muffins from pans and finish cooling on a rack.

Notes

 
*If you are making mini-muffins, bake them for 12 - 14 minutes.
