Ingredients:
- 3 Large overripe bananas (approx. 375g)
- 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, melted and cooled (115g)
- 1/2 cup Light brown sugar, packed (100g)
- 1 Large egg, room temperature
- 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour (190g)
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Fine sea salt
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (175g)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas using a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with small lumps. Whisk in the melted butter, light brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until the emulsion is glossy and fully incorporated.
- Sift the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and fine sea salt directly into the wet banana mixture. Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet. Stop as soon as only a few small streaks of flour remain to avoid over-mixing. Fold in the chocolate chips with three final turns.
- Divide the batter evenly among 12 lined or greased muffin cups. Bake at 425°F (218°C) for exactly 5 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 13–15 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
