HEALTHY DOUBLE CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFINS



Healthy Double Chocolate Banana Muffins image

A healthier muffin that's super tender, moist and bursting with chocolate flavor.

Provided by Kim

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Snack

Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large very ripe bananas (lots of brown spots are best) (about 1 3/4 cups, mashed or blended in blender)
1/4 cup honey*
1 large egg (at room temperature)
3 tablespoons coconut oil** (melted)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour or all-purpose flour***
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon cornstarch****
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips + 3 tablespoons more for topping
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional for additional chocolatey goodness)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare a muffin pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper muffin liners. I like to use a silicone muffin pan and then there's no need to spray it or use muffin liners. I also like to dust the muffin pan cavities with a little cocoa powder.
  • Mix wet ingredients together until well combined: ripe mashed bananas, honey, egg, oil and vanilla.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, cornstarch and salt. Mix until just combined. Over-mixing will result in denser muffins. Stir in chocolate chips. I used 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (Trader Joe's) and an additional 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (Enjoy Life).
  • Pour batter into muffin cups (about a heaping 1/4 cup batter per muffin) and sprinkle additional 3 or 4 regular-sized chocolate chips over the tops of the muffins.
  • Bake muffins for 5 minutes at 425 degrees F. and then with muffins staying in the oven, reduce heat to 350 degrees F. and bake muffins for 13-15 minutes more. The high heat will cause muffins to rise and then you will lower heat to cook the center of the muffin.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

EGG-FREE DOUBLE CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFINS



Egg-Free Double Chocolate Banana Muffins image

I am always looking to use up the brown bananas on my counter. My usual go-to was banana nut bread, but when my youngest developed an egg allergy I had to come up with something different. Since bananas and chocolate are so good together I decided to make these muffins. You would never be able to tell they are egg-free. -Danielle Siero, Farmington, Michigan

These muffins are so moist and full of flavor! I have looked at dozens of recipes and most had too much sugar for my liking. There is absolutely no need for a lot of sugar to make these muffins delicious. Because they have bananas and chocolate chips, I just added 1/2 cup of sugar, which turned out perfect!
