Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

In my last co-op basket from www.bountifulbaskets.org, I got a lot of bananas.  I decided to use up a few bananas with this recipe for Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins.  The muffins turned out delicious with the soft, fluffy consistency of a cupcake.  Enjoy!

Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (I used 3 small bananas)
• 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

 

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, chocolate chips and salt. In another bowl, combine the egg, oil, yogurt, mashed banana and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350 degrees F for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Overall

These muffins are the perfect breakfast on the go or snack or even dessert.  And with everything on hand, they’re very affordable to make.

Frugality

I had everything for these muffins on-hand.  It doesn’t get more frugal than that!
