Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease the cups of a 24-count mini muffin tin with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the butter to a medium microwave-safe bowl and cook in the microwave on 50% power for 20-30 seconds at a time, just until melted. Add the peanut butter and stir to combine. Add the bananas. Mash the bananas into the peanut butter and melted butter until combined. Stir in the milk, egg, brown sugar, and vanilla.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined. Mix in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the mixture between muffin tins - about 1 1/2 tablespoons batter each. I use a cookie scoop - best invention ever!
- Bake until the tops of the muffins spring back when lightly pressed, 8 - 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool in tins for 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container for 3-4 days. These muffins freeze well, too!
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the process.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: For best results, make sure your butter, eggs, and milk are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them incorporate smoothly into the batter and produce a more tender muffin.
- Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no more.
- Fill the Muffin Cups Properly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing and creating a mess in your oven.
- Bake the Muffins until a Toothpick Inserted into the Center Comes Out Clean: This is the best way to ensure that your muffins are cooked through.
Conclusion:
These peanut butter chocolate chip mini muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're moist, fluffy, and packed with peanut butter and chocolate flavor. Follow these tips to ensure your muffins turn out perfectly every time. Enjoy!
