Equipment

  • 1 12 count muffin tin

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 c butter softened 1/2 stick
  • 1/2 c sugar
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 7/8 c flour a little less than 1 cup
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 c semi-sweet choc chips plus a little extra for the tops

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line or grease your 12-count muffin tin.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and sugar and cream the ingredients together. Then, add the mashed banana and egg and mix all ingredients.
  • Add flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to the bowl. Stir all of the ingredients together until they are just combined - do not overmix.
  • Add semi-sweet chocolate chips to the bowl and fold them in gently. Scoop the batter into your greased/lined muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 of the way full.
  • Add additional chocolate chips to the tops of the batter of each muffin.
  • Bake muffins for 22-25 minutes, or until golden brown on the tops and thoroughly done in the center. Allow 8-10 minutes for the banana muffins to cool, then carefully remove each muffin from the tin and serve warm.
