Banana Mini Choco Chip Muffins image

Adapted from the Penzey's spices catalog. These are very moist and speckled with tiny bits of chocolate. I fill my muffin tins very full,m so I actually only get 12 large muffins (which require more like 20-25 minutes cooking time), but if you prefer smaller muffins, you will get 16-18 by filling the tins 3/4s full.

Time 33m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup sweet unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract (really that much)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup mashed banana (approximately 2 bananas)
1/2 cup sweetened miniature chocolate chip

Steps:

  • Grease 2 (12 hole) regular size muffin pans and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cream butter and sugar together until combined well and fluffy.
  • Add one egg, beat well; add second egg, beat well.
  • Add vanilla and stir to combine.
  • In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and cinnamon.
  • Combine wet mixture and dry mixture using a spoon and stir just until all the ingredients are moistened- don't overmix and don't use an electric mixer or it will toughen the muffins (you can press out any big lumps with your spoon).
  • Gently fold in the bananas and the mini chocolate chips.
  • Spoon into muffin tins so they are 3/4 full- you will probably only have enough batter for about 18.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick tests clean.
  • Let cool 5-10 minutes in the pans, then gently slide a butter knife around the edges to help loosen any stubborn bits.
  • Remove from tins and let cool or serve warm with butter.
