Ingredients

1 cup mashed bananas (about 2-3 bananas)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup milk (I use whole milk)
1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips
granulated sugar (1/2 teaspoon for top of each muffin)

Instructions

Heat oven to 400°. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine mashed bananas, sugar, milk, oil, and egg. Beat with a whisk until combined. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and miniature chocolate chips. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula just until combined.
Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups. Each should be about half full. Sprinkle the top of each muffin with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar.
Bake 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean OR you can gently press on the tops of the muffins and they should spring back and not look wet/underdone.
** If the tops of the muffins are getting to browned, loosely lay a piece of tin foil over top the muffins for the last 5 minutes of bake time.
Let cool in pan for 5-10 minutes and then remove to a cooling rack to cool completely. Or eat one warm!

Notes

Any milk will work in this recipe. I always like to bake with whole milk so that's what I use. But you can use whatever you have in your fridge.

The sprinkle of sugar on top makes these muffins so yummy! Please don't skip it. You can if you want to, but the sugar gets a little crisp in the oven and it gives such a nice contrast to the soft muffins. It's only 1/2 teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on top the muffins OR you could even do less if wanted.
