Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

I think that these muffins are a great way to use up left over bananas! Next time I will cover my chocolate chips with flour before adding to the mixture so that they dont fall to the bottom of the muffins. I also set the heat in my over for 420, but had to cook them longer, so will use orginal heating and baking insturctions next time! Might try to half the oil and use applesauce too! Great recipe thank you!




12 large muffins (could make 15-16 if you don't fill the muffin cups to the top, and reduce the calories)


Ingredients
1 1/2 cups mashed bananas
2/3 cup sunflower seed oil
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
1.Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
2.In a medium bowl blend the banana, oil, egg and vanilla together.
3.In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Stir in the banana mixture until just blended. Fold in the chocolate chips. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling 3/4 full.
4.Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
