Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 to 3 pieces very ripe bananas, mashed Use 3 if the bananas are small.
  • 1/3 cup melted butter or neutral oil
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup sugar Use closer to 1/2 if the bananas are very sweet.
  • 1 piece egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 to 1 cup chocolate chips Measure with your heart, but do not go wild.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a muffin pan or grease it well.
  2. Mash the bananas until mostly smooth; a few small chunks are fine.
  3. Stir in the melted butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla until combined.
  4. Sprinkle the flour, baking soda, and salt on top, then gently stir until you do not see dry flour.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips, saving a few for the tops.
  6. Scoop the batter into the muffin pan, add extra chips on top, and bake for about 18 to 22 minutes.

Notes

Avoid overmixing after adding flour to keep muffins soft. If muffins come out dry, consider the baking time, banana quantity, or flour measurement.
