Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

1 ½ cup (195 g) all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon cinnamon powder
½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

1 cup (250 g) mashed ripe bananas , around 2 bananas
½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
⅓ cup (65 g) oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs , room temperature
1 cup (180 g) mini chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Line a 12-hole muffin pan with muffin liners.

Dry Ingredients

Mix all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon powder in a bowl, using a spoon.
Take 1-2 tablespoon of dry ingredients mixture and add it to another bowl containing chocolate chips. Mix well. Set aside.

Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, add mashed bananas, sugar, oil, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix well using a hand whisk.
Add the dry ingredients and mix well, making sure not to over mix the batter. Finally, add the chocolate chip mixture and fold everything with a spatula.

Bake

Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly into 12 muffin liners. Optional, sprinkle some chocolate chips on top. Bake on the middle rack for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

Use ripe bananas. Brownish skins with specks are the best! Underripe bananas will make the batter lumpy, not as tender and moist, and less sweet.
Mash the bananas using a fork. We noticed it's even easier and they mash even better compared to using a masher.
Measure flour using the scoop and level method. Don't scoop the flour into the measuring cup, and avoid packing it down. This will help prevent using too much flour, which can result in tough muffins.
Don't overmix the dry and wet ingredients. This will prevent the muffins from getting tough.
