Time 25m

Yield 12 Muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups walnuts, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup fat free Greek yogurt, plain
1/4 cup nonfat milk
1 large egg
1 banana, very ripe, mashed (about 1/3c)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (not artifical)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Measure 1/2 cup of the walnuts into a food processor and grind to a fine meal. Place the ground walnuts, flour, chocolate chips, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
  • Combine the brown sugar, oil, yogurt, milk, egg, banana, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl and stir until smooth. Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture and stir until thoroughly combined. Stir in the remaining 1 cup walnuts and mix well (the batter will be thick).
  • Fill the muffin cups three-fourths full and bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the tops spring back lightly when touched. Remove the muffins from the pan and let cool on a rack.
