Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line the cups of muffin tins with 18 muffin liners or grease with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter and brown sugar on high speed until fluffy. Add the mashed bananas, eggs, and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.

Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips in a separate bowl before adding to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are just incorporated.

Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup to the top with the batter. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the top comes out without any raw batter. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Banana Ripeness Matters 🍌
Use overripe bananas with dark brown spots for maximum sweetness and moisture in your muffins - they'll provide deeper flavor and natural sweetness.
Chocolate Chip Distribution Hack 🍫
Toss chocolate chips in a tablespoon of flour before adding to the batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
Gentle Mixing Technique 🥄
Mix the wet and dry ingredients just until combined to avoid tough muffins - a few small lumps are perfectly okay and will ensure a tender crumb.
Room Temperature Ingredients Trick 🌡️
Ensure eggs and butter are at room temperature before mixing to create a smoother, more evenly incorporated batter that rises better.
Muffin Top Magic 👑
Start baking at a higher temperature (425°F) for the first 5 minutes to create a beautiful, high-domed muffin top, then reduce to 350°F to finish baking.
