The Best Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins
These chocolate chip banana muffins are one of those bake-on-repeat recipes that don’t need much overthinking.
Ripe bananas bring all the moisture and sweetness, while a simple batter keeps them soft and fluffy. Fold in chocolate chips for little pockets of melty sweetness in every bite. They’re quick to mix together, forgiving with ingredients, and the kind of muffin that works just as well warm out of the oven as it does the next day (if they last that long).
