Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup white sugar
6 tablespoons butter, softened
¾ teaspoon lemon zest
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 cup finely chopped cooked beets
1 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
  • Beat sugar, butter, and lemon zest together in a large bowl until smooth. Add eggs and banana to the sugar mixture; beat until smooth. Stir about 1/3 of the flour mixture into the sugar mixture to integrate fully into a batter; repeat with remaining flour mixture in two even additions. Fold beets and chocolate chips into the batter; spoon into the lined muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
