I adapted this recipe with a few of my own changes from a Cooking for 2 Magazine recipe, so it is great for when you just want to mix up 1/2 dozen muffins. These are a very moist muffin with just enough chocolate and nut flavor. Tastes best fresh out of the oven.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • Cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and tender muffin.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Fold in the dry ingredients gently. Overmixing can toughen the muffins.
  • Add the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts last. This will prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the muffin cups.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to create a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

These chocolate chip banana nut muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. And with so many variations possible, you can easily customize them to your own taste.

So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying treat, give these chocolate chip banana nut muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
