Learn to make delicious chocolate chip banana muffins with easy-to-follow instructions and helpful baking tips from Whisk Daily.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gently fold in the mashed bananas until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, folding gently after each addition until just incorporated.
  7. Carefully fold in the chocolate chips.
  8. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your bananas are very ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Using room temperature ingredients will help everything combine smoothly.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can lead to tough muffins.
  • For an extra special touch, you can sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the batter before baking.
