Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

These banana chocolate chip muffins are a sweet and moist banana muffin, packed full of chocolate chips. They’re perfect for breakfast, or a snack!

I love making muffins as an easy portable breakfast option, or afternoon snack. These banana chocolate chip muffins are one of my favorite flavors. I love chocolate chip banana bread, so why not make it into hand held muffins instead! You should also try our Brown Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies, or Banana Pudding Trifle.

These banana muffins are so easy to make because they are made with mostly pantry ingredients, and the batter only takes a few minutes to mix together.

How to make Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins?

Like I said, these banana chocolate chip muffins are super easy to make. You’ll start by pre-heating your oven and preparing two muffin pans.

You’ll combine your butter and sugar until they’re nice and smooth and creamy. Add in the eggs and mix till just combined. Then mash your bananas in a small bowl using a fork. Add the mashed bananas and vanilla extract to your sugar mixture.

Add in all your dry ingredients, meaning your flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and fold it all together till you have a nice batter. Then you’ll fold in your chocolate chips. I like mini chocolate chips cause they spread better throughout the batter.

Scoop the mixture into your muffin pans and fill each liner or muffin spot about 3/4 full. Bake until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out just barely clean.

The muffins are ready to enjoy and I promise you, you will enjoy them!

These banana muffins are the perfect snack, or breakfast on the go. They should last if kept at room temperature for one to two days in best condition. They can stay good for up to 4 days if you store them with a paper towel underneath to absorb the extra moisture. Just make sure to keep them in a ziplock bag or airtight container.

These muffins are packed full of the perfect sweet banana flavor, and are so delicious! You won’t be able to stop at just one 😉
