    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat honey, agave nectar, egg, vanilla and banana until blended. Add flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and yogurt. Beat for 1-2 minutes until fully combined. Fold in chocolate morsels.
  2. Grease cupcake tin with nonstick baking spray. Spoon batter into each tin (about 1/4 cup).
  3. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 18-20 minutes. For mini muffins, bake 11-13 minutes.

Notes

  • For mini muffins, recipe makes about 36 muffins.
  • This recipe yields about 18 standard sized muffins or 36 mini muffins.
  • To make mini muffins you will need to shorten the baking time. Smaller muffins cook through faster!
  • Feel free to swap out the chocolate chips for other favorite muffin mix-ins like chopped walnuts or pecans. Or use a little of both!
  • Add walnuts like we did in our banana nut muffins!
