The Best Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Banana and chocolate are flavors 
that are just meant for each other.

When bananas get over ripe they are perfect

 for my favorite Banana Bread or these moist 

and delicious banana chocolate chip muffins. 

If I'm not going to use them right away

 I throw overripe bananas in the freezer. 
(no bag, un-peeled) to use anytime. 

 These yummy muffins mix-up in minutes 

and take just 20 minutes to bake. If you 

like a really sweet muffin you can increase

the amount of sugar to 1 C. Use two bowls;

One bowl for the dry ingredients, 

and one bowl for the wet.

Then mix them together.

 Stir in the chocolate chips.

 Divide the batter into paper lined 12 C

muffin pan.

 Bake @350º until the tops spring back when 

lightly touched, about 20  minutes.

 Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes then 

remove to  a wire rack to cool. 

These muffins freeze well too. 

 Perfect golden muffin tops!

 Now it's time to enjoy one with a 

frothy cup of coffee. 

 These muffins have great crumb texture.
