Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 3 large ripe bananas
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 0.25 cup milk
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tray with paper liners or grease it with a non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth.

Step 4

Add the sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and egg to the mashed bananas and whisk until well combined.

Step 5

Pour in the milk and continue whisking until the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be sure not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 7

Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 8

Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.

Step 9

Bake 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 crumbs.

Step 10

Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
