Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup light brown sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.75 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cup chopped walnuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with nonstick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth and slightly chunky, depending on your preference.
Step 3
Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bananas. Whisk until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Avoid overmixing to ensure your muffins stay tender and light.
Step 6
Add the milk to the batter and stir gently until just combined.
Step 7
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts, reserving a small handful of each for topping the muffins if desired.
Step 8
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips and walnuts on top for added texture and presentation.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 10
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
