Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 to 1 ⅓ cups ripe bananas mashed (about 3 medium bananas)
  • ¼ cup peanut butter chips divided
  • ¼ cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips divided

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a muffin tin with 12 paper cups.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • Use about 1/2 of a banana to cut 12 thin banana slices to be used for decoration. Mash the remaining 2 1/2 bananas in a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and vegetable oil. Whisk in the egg followed by the mashed bananas. Stir in the dry ingredients followed by 2 tablespoons each of the peanut butter and chocolate chips.
  • Pour batter evenly in the 12 muffin cups. Place a banana slice in the center of each muffin. Scatter the remaining peanut butter and chocolate chips on top of the muffins.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs when inserted into the center of a muffin.

Notes

This recipe is also delicious using only chocolate chips! Just omit the peanut butter chips and add an extra 1/4 cup of chocolate chips.Use semi-sweet or dark chocolate and mini, regular sized and chocolate chunks all work!
