Ingredients
  

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 3 medium bananas mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cup milk or semisweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a standard muffin tin with liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the softened butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.
  4. Add the mashed bananas, Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until everything comes together. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Spoon about ¼ cup of batter into each muffin cup. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top if you’re feeling generous.
  8. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

These muffins are soft, forgiving, and exactly the kind of baking win I need on a normal day. Nothing fancy.
Nothing perfect. Just good, cozy food that uses up bananas before they turn into science experiments.
