RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
Use the ripest bananas you have! The browner, the better!
You can substitute the greek yoghurt for a good quality, thick natural or vanilla yoghurt if you prefer.
If you live in a cooler climate, you may need to melt your coconut oil first if it has solidified!
You can use either chocolate chips, or for a cafe-style look, chop a section of a block of chocolate into chunks (just like I've done in this recipe!).
Add a few extra chocolate chips or chocolate chunks to the top of the muffins before baking.
The muffins are cooked when a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs on it.
Store muffins at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Freeze muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
