Baking is Love: banana chocolate-chips muffins.

Happy Sunday everyone!

Last summer I've baked lots of muffins at home! The reason is simple, because my mom and sister really love them. There were many muffins' recipes I've tried before, such as double chocolate muffins, banana cream cheese muffins, mocha muffins, blueberry buttermilk muffins, strawberry 'n raspberry muffins, etc. Muffins are so easy and really fun to make, especially if you bake them together with your friends... there must be so much fun in the kitchen.

Today I wanna share my Banana and Chocolate Chips Muffins which I made a little while back. One best thing about baking something with bananas is that the whole house will smell sooo good! And it's also best if you use an over-ripe ones. So if you have over-ripe bananas at home, please don't throw it up. You can bake some desserts with them! (banana cake, banana loaf, banana cupcakes, banana pancakes, anything.). They offered the best sweet and yummy flavour of bananas.

Now, here's the recipe to follow:

Ingredients:

230 grams all-purpose flour

150 grams granulated white sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 large eggs, lighty beaten

113 grams unsalted butter, melted and cooled

3-4 ripe/over-ripe large bananas, mashed well

100 grams milk/dark chocolate chips

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:

1). In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

2). In a medium-sized bowl combine the mashed bananas, eggs, melted butter and vanilla.

3). With a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, lightly fold the wet ingredients (banana mixture) into the dry ingredients just until combined and the batter is thick and chunky (remember not to overmix the batter!).

4). Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins. Top each with chocolate chips.

5). Bake about 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

6). Place on a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes and then remove muffins from pan.

7). Serve warm or at room temperature.

Make 12 regular sized muffins.
