Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins Recipe

PREP TIME:10 min COOK TIME:20 min TOTAL TIME:30 min YIELD:12 DIFFICULTY:easy RECIPE TYPE:Breakfast, Dessert, SnackIngredients: 1 cups all purpose flour spooned into measuring cup and leveled not scooped 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon baking powder tsp. baking soda teaspoon salt 2/3 cup white granulated sugar cup light brown sugar 1 cups very ripe mashed bananas about 3 bananas 2 large eggs room temperature 1/3 cup canola oil 2 Tablespoons milk room temperature 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions:1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and place oven rack in center position. Line a standard muffin pan with 12 liners. Set aside.2. Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, white sugar and light brown sugar. Whisk together to be sure everything is thoroughly combined. Add the chocolate chips and mix to combine. Set aside.3. In another bowl or large measuring cup, add the oil, eggs, vanilla and milk. Whisk to combine thoroughly. Add the mashed banana and mix through with a rubber spatula.4. All at once pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a rubber spatula, just until combined and the flour disappears. Do not over mix. Over mixing will create dense, tough muffins.5. Distribute the batter evenly into 12 muffin liners. The batter will come close to the top of the liner. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or when a muffin is touched gently on the top, it springs back. Be careful when checking, as the tester can stick into a banana or chocolate chip and come out moist, but the muffin may be done. I baked mine for 23 minutes, using a dark pan. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, before removing. Light, moist, flavorful muffins that are perfect served warm! Enjoy!6. Note: Freeze leftover muffins on the day they are baked, in an airtight container or freezer bag. Reheat thawed muffins briefly in the oven or cut in half and pop in the toaster.
