Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups mashed very ripe bananas (about 4 medium bananas)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup plain applesauce
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1 large egg
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup heaping semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the mashed bananas, sugars, applesauce, milk, and egg.
  • Add the flours, instant espresso powder, baking soda, and salt to banana mixture. Stir until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters full. Bake in the center of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Move the muffin pan to a cooling rack, and let cool for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, remove the muffins from the pan and let them finish cooling on the cooling rack.
