The muffins have plenty of banana and there are semisweet chocolate chips in an easy basic batter made with all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, egg, butter, and milk.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 ¼ teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 3 extra-ripe bananas, mashed (1 cup)

  • ¾ cup light brown sugar

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 large egg

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, whisk together banana, sugar, egg, butter, and milk. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients then stir in chocolate chips.

  2. Divide batter evenly between prepared cups, adding a scant 1/4 cup to each. Bake until tops spring back when lightly touched, about 20 minutes. Cool in pans 5 minutes, then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
