Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, peeled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) to ensure it’s hot and ready when your batter is prepared.
- Prepare Muffin Pan: Grease a regular-size muffin pan using cooking spray or a light coating of oil to prevent the muffins from sticking.
- Add Ingredients to Blender: Place peeled bananas, eggs, peanut butter, maple syrup, honey, vanilla extract, and baking soda together in a blender.
- Blend Batter: Blend the mixture until creamy and smooth, which should take about 2 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are fully combined.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Transfer the batter to a bowl and gently fold in the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips by hand to evenly distribute them without breaking.
- Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full for perfect muffin shapes.
- Bake Muffins: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
- Cool Muffins: Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes initially, then transfer them onto a cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Ensure bananas are ripe for natural sweetness and better texture.
- Use creamy peanut butter for a smoother batter and consistent flavor.
- The muffins will be moist inside due to the lack of flour; handle gently.
- Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
- Can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw before serving.
