Delicious All Year Round

These muffins are soft, fluffy and have the perfect amount of sweetness.  I make them all year round.  Even in the summer months, they are great for picnics or days at the beach.

Easy Banana Muffins

I make these muffins a lot.  We often have extra bananas leftover at the end of the week and my son loves them.  I used to make this recipe beating the butter and sugar together, but to save time I started melting the butter instead. Just throwing everything in a bowl and mixing is so simple – anyone can do it regardless of baking skills. I saw no difference in taste or texture so I decided to change the recipe for all of you.  Who doesn’t love a time saver?

Step By Step Instructions

Start with melting the butter.  Then add the bananas to the warm butter. Mash the banana into the warm butter with a potato masher. Add sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix until blended  Add the chocolate chips. Fold the chocolate chips in until mixed evenly into the batter. Add the batter into muffin cases.  Top with banana chips for decoration. Bake for about 20 minutes (30 minutes for the large loaf pan) or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or cooled and enjoy every last bite!
