Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (about 3 large)
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Mash bananas in a large bowl until mostly smooth.
  2. Whisk in melted butter, maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and milk until combined.
  3. Sprinkle flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon over the wet mixture. Fold gently with a spatula, then add oats and chocolate chips and fold just until no dry flour remains.
  4. Divide batter evenly among cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake 16 to 18 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool muffins in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

These muffins freeze beautifully, so double the batch and stash half for later. If your bananas are not quite ripe, you can roast them unpeeled at 350°F for 10 minutes to soften and sweeten them. Let them cool before mashing.
