Hello all– This is a little chocolate banana muffin that masquerades as a fruit muffin, but really is more of a dessert. You can make them for breakfast if you want to (no judging here!), but they’d be fine with a cup of coffee after dinner too. Moist, rich and delicious…
DOUBLE CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFINS
2 bananas, smashed
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup sour cream (or unflavored yogurt)
1 egg
2 tab. unsweetened cocoa*
1 cup mini chocolate chips, divided
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tab. cornstarch
1 cup flour
Smash the bananas completely in a mixing bowl with a fork. Stir in the brown sugar, vanilla, oil, sour cream and egg. Then mix in the cocoa and 2/3 cup of the chocolate chips. Finally stir in the salt, baking powder, cornstarch and flour.
Spoon the batter into 10 to 12 muffin tins lined with muffin papers.** Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips over the muffins. Pop them into a 350 degree oven for 15 to 18 minutes until they are firm to the touch.
*Love Hershey’s dark cocoa
**or spray the muffin pans with cooking spray
