If you don&#8217;t have any oil on hand, you can just use 6 tablespoons of melted butter instead. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bananas: <\/strong>You will need 1 \u00bd cups of mashed bananas, which is equal to 3 large or 4 medium bananas. For the best flavor, make sure to use bananas that are overripe with lots of brown speckles on them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Brown Sugar: <\/strong>Adds sweetness, flavor, and moisture to the muffins. If you don&#8217;t have any, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/how-to-make-brown-sugar\/\">make your own brown sugar<\/a> using some granulated sugar and molasses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>All-Purpose Flour: <\/strong>This provides the structure for the muffins. Make sure that you are spooning your flour into the measuring cup and leveling it off with the back of a knife. If you scoop the flour you&#8217;re likely going to measure out too much and end up with super dense muffins. If you&#8217;re new to baking, I explain more in my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/how-to-measure-flour\/\">how to measure flour<\/a> correctly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Baking Soda: <\/strong>This gives the muffins some lift and also helps them brown. If you&#8217;re a baking nerd (like myself!) and curious about the science behind it, then I highly recommend reading through my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/the-difference-between-baking-soda-and-baking-powder\/\">baking soda vs. baking powder<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ground Cinnamon:<\/strong> This adds a little extra flavor to the muffins and really complements the banana and chocolate chips. If you&#8217;re not a fan of cinnamon though, feel free to leave it out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chocolate Chips: <\/strong>I used semi-sweet, but milk chocolate or even dark chocolate would work great. If you&#8217;re looking to try something a little different, some cinnamon or peanut butter chips would be delicious too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images

I prefer to store mine in an airtight container or ziplock bag, but you could also place them on a plate and cover them tightly with plastic wrap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to store the muffins longer, then I recommend freezing them. Just be sure to let them cool completely first, then store them in a large freezer bag or freezer-safe storage container. When you&#8217;re ready to enjoy the muffins let them thaw to room temperature on the counter or reheat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"2040\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=1360%2C2040&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of a banana chocolate chip muffin turned on its side with a bite missing. \" class=\"wp-image-54235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=340%2C510&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=680%2C1020&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=1024%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Banana-Chocolate-Chip-Muffins-3.jpg?resize=150%2C225&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-lightmint-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baking Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A room temperature egg is best for this recipe because it will disperse more evenly into the batter and prevent the melted butter from becoming cold or lumpy. If you forget to sit your egg out ahead of time, just place it in a bowl of warm water for 5 to 10 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use overripe bananas for this recipe. Speckled bananas are sweeter and will provide the strongest flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure not to over mix the batter! This can over develop the gluten and cause the muffins to turn out dense or gummy. You only need to mix in the dry ingredients and chocolate chips until just combined.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I like to sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the muffins before baking them. This step is optional, but it makes for a prettier presentation. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe-video\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-video-container-54274\"
