Ingredients
- ⅓ c. unsalted butter
- 1.5 c. mashed banana about 3 large bananas
- ⅔ c. sugar
- 1 egg slightly beaten
- 1.5 c. white whole wheat flour
- ½ tsp. kosher salt
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- 12 Maraschino cherries
- ½ c. mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375° F. Line a regular size muffin tin with twelve paper liners and set aside.
- In a small bowl in the microwave, gently melt the butter. Let it sit to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, mash bananas thoroughly. Add sugar and egg. Stir to combine, and then stir in the melted butter.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add these dry ingredients to the banana mixture and fold lightly. Add half of the batter to the prepared muffin cups, dividing the batter evenly amongst the twelve cups. Gently press one cherry into the center of each cup of batter, taking care to not press the cherry to the bottom of the muffin tin. Add the remaining batter to the cups, dividing the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups, covering the cherries. Sprinkle with chocolate chips.
- Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or until nicely golden at the edges, and just set in the center. Let muffins rest in pan for a minute, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
