Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 3 medium Ripe bananas
• 0.3 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large Egg, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter, lightly beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.

Step 5

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean (a few melted chocolate streaks are okay).

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy these delightful banana chocolate chip muffins!
