Delightful muffins that combine ripe bananas with rich chocolate chips, perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- Combine the mashed bananas, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter in a large bowl. Mix until smooth.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Whisk together the baking soda, salt, and flour in a separate bowl.
