Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 3 medium-sized ripe bananas peeled and mashed (a scant 1 cup or 240g mashed)
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whole Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips plus more for topping
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts plus more for topping
  • Turbinado sugar for topping

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula
  • Muffin Tin
  • Parchment paper liners
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, brown sugar, Greek yogurt, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  5. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula. It's okay if there are a few lumps remaining.
  6. Add the chocolate chips and chopped nuts to the batter and fold them in gently.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and moisture.
  • Greek yogurt keeps muffins moist; sour cream is a good substitute.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
