Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 ripe bananas about 2 cups mashed
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 ½ cups mini chocolate chips divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350℉. Line regular sized muffin tin with paper liners or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add in eggs and vanilla and beat until well combined.
  3. Add in bananas. Mix until creamy. Add in flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir just until combined. Fold in the sour cream until blended.
  4. Fold in 1 cup mini chocolate chips.
  5. Using a medium sized cookie scoop, fill each well about 2/3rds full. Top each muffin with additional chocolate chips. 
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the tops have browned.
  7. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan.

Notes

  • To fill our muffin tin, we used a medium scoop that holds about 2 ½ Tablespoons.
  • Top with additional mini chocolate chips for a bakery-style look.
  • Use ripe bananas for best flavor. If your bananas are still yellow or green, use this trick to ripen bananas in 20 minutes!
  • For a dark, non-stick muffin pan, decrease the baking time by 1-2 minutes to prevent over-baking and browning.
  • For jumbo sized muffins, we used double the amount of batter for each well.  We baked 6 at a time and the baking time was about 28-30 minutes.
