Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2–3 overripe ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly. In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Gather all your measured ingredients to keep the process smooth.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: Into the mashed bananas, stir in the Greek yogurt, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined but avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. This ensures even distribution of leavening agents for a consistent rise.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture, folding gently with a spatula. When the flour has almost fully disappeared, fold in the chocolate chips for even bursts of sweetness.
  5. Bake and Cool: Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use overripe bananas with brown spots for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
  • Spoon and level flour instead of scooping to avoid dense muffins.
  • Use room temperature eggs and yogurt for better mixing and smoother batter.
  • Add chocolate chips last to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
