Chocolate Banana Muffins Recipe Tips
- Firstly, use quality chocolate since it is one of the main ingredients here. The same applies to the chocolate chips, use high-quality ones.
- Bananas must be brown, very ripe, and easy to mush. Obviously, don’t wait for the bananas to turn completely brown, that is overdoing it.
- Also, it is best to sift the dry ingredients, it will make a difference in texture.
- I also like to use larger chocolate chips, as they don’t fully melt when baked and are amazing when you bite into them!
- In addition, you can also add some chopped walnuts, about 1/3 cup for some crunchiness.
- You can use canola oil, vegetable oil or even olive oil! Also, you can use melted coconut oil.
- These Chocolate Banana Muffins also taste amazing with peanut butter chocolate chips!
- Watch the muffins closely, not to over-bake them, check after 15-20 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins should come out clean or just with some melted chocolate on, but not raw batter.
- Serve the muffins warm or room temperature, with some butter.
How long will the Chocolate Banana Muffins stay fresh?
The Chocolate Banana Muffins can be stored wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature for about 4-5 days.
