Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 large Ripe bananas
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
• 0.75 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Add the egg, vanilla extract, milk, and vegetable oil, then whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until the batter is just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Step 5

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are distributed evenly throughout the batter.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 7

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
