Ingredients

  • 4 medium overripe bananas, peeled and mashed (about 1 1/2 cups mashed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup plain, unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tbsp light butter, melted (I use Earth Balance whipped)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips (I use Lily's)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line muffin tin cups with liners and coat with cooking spray.
  • Whisk together banana, light butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and milk.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Gently fold flour mixture into banana mixture, being sure not to overmix.
  • Fill muffin cups half way with batter. Sprinkle about half of the chocolate chips evenly among the cups, then continue to evenly disperse remaining batter among the cups.
  • Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips evenly across the top of the muffins. Lightly push them into the batter.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center come out clean.
