Easy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Description
Easy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins use mashed bananas combined with sugar, egg, and melted butter to create the wet base, while the dry ingredients of flour, baking soda, and baking powder ensure the muffins rise and have a light texture. Stirring in chocolate chips adds richness and pockets of melted chocolate after baking.
The batter is portioned into muffin cups and baked initially at a higher temperature, then lowered to finish baking. This method helps set the structure and produces a nicely browned top. The muffins have a soft and moist crumb with chocolate chips throughout that add texture and sweetness.
These muffins store well in an airtight container once cooled and can be frozen. Thawing in the refrigerator or microwaving briefly restores freshness, making them practical for preparing ahead or portioning for snacks or quick breakfasts.

- 3 banana mashed, large
- ½ c. white sugar

Notes
