Who KNEW my husband loved muffins so much!? I mean, we've been together for 7 years and although I've baked quite a few times for him, this is the first thing I've ever made from scratch. Let me just tell you -- he ate FIVE muffins in one sitting! LOL! I guess that means they were awesome :P
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Ingredients
1/2 cup softened butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2 bananas mashed (I even used my potato masher for this :P)
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. nutmeg (we were out so I added vanilla extract instead)
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda (this was a little tricky... I only had baking powder - so I used a 2-1 ration and used 2 tsp. of baking powder)
1 cup chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 375°
Mix butter and sugar together in a small bowl
Dissolve baking powder in water - then add to a separate bowl with mashed bananas and egg
Add butter and sugar mixture to combine all wet ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, now combine dry ingredients -- flour, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and chocolate chips (since I used vanilla in lieu of nutmeg, I added the vanilla in with the wet ingredients)
Add wet ingredients into flour mixture and stir til combined
Rub butter in bottom of muffin tins
Fill each tin about 1/2 to 3/4 full of batter
Bake for about 20 minutes
Note - You may want to make a double batch if you have a husband like mine! He put them on the very top of the cabinet so I can't reach them :(
