A quick and easy one bowl recipe for moist and tender chocolate chip banana bread muffins, perfect for breakfast or a snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup (80ml) vegetable oil (canola or sunflower preferred)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (130g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • Optional: ½ cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with oil or non-stick spray.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until mostly smooth with a few small lumps remain, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add vegetable oil, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until combined and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add flour, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients. Gently fold with a wooden spoon or spatula until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips and optional nuts just until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon or scoop batter evenly into muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool muffins in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe bananas with brown spots for best sweetness and moisture. Do not overmix batter to avoid tough muffins. Room temperature eggs blend better. Oil keeps muffins moist longer than butter. If batter is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons milk. For vegan version, substitute eggs with flax eggs and use dairy-free chocolate chips and oil.
