Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3-4 bananas, mashed (about 1 1/4 cup)
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a muffin tin and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, melt 1/4 cup of butter.
- Add 1/3 cup of brown sugar and 1/3 cup of white sugar and cream with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes. The mixture should become light and fluffy. If using a whisk, it might take closer to 5 minutes.
- Beat in 2 eggs.
- Add in the mashed bananas, yogurt and vanilla. Mix until incorporated.
- In a separate, large bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 1/3 cup of oats, 1 tsp of baking powder and 1/2 tsp of salt. Whisk to incorporate.
- Make a small well in the flour mixture and pour in banana mixture. Whisk until just combined (it's okay if it's a little lumpy).
- Add in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts. Mix slightly.
- Spoon mixture into 12 muffin tins and top with a few extra chocolate chips.
- Pop in oven and cook for 18-22 minutes. They are done when golden brown on top and when an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
