Instructions
1
|
Mash the bananas in a large bowl, then whisk in the eggs, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth. Add the white sugar and brown sugar and mix until fully combined.
2
|
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold gently until just combined, do not overmix.
3
|
Fold in the 100 g dark chocolate chips. The batter will be thick, that’s perfect for moist muffins.
4
|
Line your muffin tin and divide the batter evenly.
5
|
Bake for 5 minutes at 200°C, then reduce to 180°C and bake for another 18 minutes. This high-heat start creates the signature high muffin top.

|
Let the muffins rest in the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Serve warm for melty chocolate centers or at room temperature for a fudgier texture.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Banana Ripeness is Critical 🍌Use bananas with brown speckles or mostly brown skin—their higher sugar content and softer texture create superior moisture and natural sweetness that regular yellow bananas cannot match.
- Greek Yogurt Substitution Magic 🥛Greek yogurt adds richness and moisture while reducing the need for excess butter; it also creates a tender crumb by adding acidity that reacts with baking soda for optimal lift.
- Toast Chocolate Chips First ♨️Briefly warm your dark chocolate chips in a dry pan before folding them in to intensify their cocoa flavor and prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
- Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄Stir wet and dry ingredients just until combined—overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, dense muffins instead of the tender, fluffy texture these deserve.
- Chocolate Powder Bloom Technique 🍫Bloom the cocoa powder by mixing it with hot water or melted butter first to unlock deeper chocolate flavor and prevent bitter, raw cocoa taste in the final muffins.
