Banana muffins are an absolute classic and when you add in some chocolate, you end up with something even better! Say hello to these delicious Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins.
I love these muffins because they take no time at all to whip up. Plus they’re the perfect way to use up any over-ripe bananas you have lying around (the riper the better!).
You can remove the chocolate chips if you prefer, or even add in some chopped pecans or walnuts for variety.
These muffins make the perfect afternoon treat or lunchbox filler. Quick, easy and very yummy!

Fantastic!!
Absolutely delicious
Just made these and cut up KitKat into small bits and threw them in. I use brown sugar rather than caster as it makes them denser. Totally amazing recipe

OMG YUMMMMMMMM!!!
Each time I have made these they have stuck to the muffin cases what am I doing wrong??

Hi Belinda, try giving them a little spray with non-stick baking spray before cooking or try a different kind of case. xx
Just made these today, using some really over ripe bananas…: they were so delish 👌🏻
Really enjoyed these.
And my 3yo son loved making then with me (and licking the spatula clean!!)
Next time I might try 50/50 brown sugar/castor sugar + see what happens.
I bet they’d also be great with white chocolate bits.
Mine taste amazing but sank when out of the oven? Any advice???
Hi Lauren, possibly your oven needs to be set a little higher? I’d try it 10/20 degrees warmer next time x
I have just made these this evening as I was on the look for a quick simple recipe.
I used only 80gms of sugar and have to cook them for 20mins (we rent quite done at 15mins) I made made half plain banana and half banana with some frozen raspberries added in. These are THE best! Both options turned out perfectly. They were light (previous banana recipes have always seemed to be really dense) and tasted delicious even with less sugar. Great recipe – thankyou!
