Recipe Time! Double Chocolate Banana Muffins



This recipe is delish and comes from Jackie at La Case de Sweets! The perfect thing to use my ripe bananas...plus a little {much needed} CHOCOLATE!


Here we go!


Ingredients:









  •  2 ripe bananas
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup yogurt
  • 1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 3/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 YIELD: 12 muffins


Instructions:

1} Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Line muffin tins with paper cups, and set aside.


 2} In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with a fork.  With a wooden spoon, stir in the egg, yogurt, and melted butter.




3} In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, baking soda, and salt.

4} Pour the banana mixture into the flour mixture, and mix until combined.

5} Stir in the melted chocolate chips, 1/2 cup of the mini chocolate chips, and the vanilla extract.




6} Fill the lined muffin tins with the batter.  Top with the remaining mini chocolate chips.


These are a bit underfilled {makes more than 12}



7} Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are dry and cracked on top.
{I baked a bit longer than this to achieve the cracked top...make sure the base is done!}

Cool slightly before enjoying!

Thank you to La Casa de Sweets for this lovely recipe!
