Mini Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

• servings: 24 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup golden or granulated sugar

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

2 overripe bananas, mashed (about 3/4 cup)

½ cup mini chocolate chips, plus more for garnishing

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 24-cup mini muffin pan generously with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, melt the butter and let cool slightly. Whisk in the sugar then the eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour and baking soda. Fold in the mashed bananas until just combined. Gently stir in the chocolate chips.

Fill each prepared muffin cup almost full with batter. Garnish the top of the batter with some mini chocolate chips, if desired.

Bake muffins for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
