Banana Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins
Description
The muffins start by mixing dry ingredients – flours, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, sugars and softened butter are creamed together, then combined with mashed bananas, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and an egg. The flour mixture is folded in gently, followed by chocolate chips folded into the batter.
Portions of batter are spooned into a muffin tray and topped with remaining chocolate chips and turbinado sugar. Baking at 375°F for 13-15 minutes creates golden, moist muffins with a lightly crisp top.
These muffins offer a combination of peanut butter richness, sweet chocolate, and banana moisture, making them a flavorful breakfast or snack option.
