These moist mini banana bread muffins with chocolate chips are quick, easy, and perfect for a snack or any occasion. They feature a tender crumb with melty chocolate chips and are made with simple pantry staples.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 1 ½ cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup (65 grams) granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup (70 grams) packed brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup (75 grams) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (60 grams) plain Greek yogurt
  • ⅓ cup (60 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your mini muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, stir granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well until fully combined.
  4. Stir in the mashed bananas and Greek yogurt until the batter is creamy and slightly thick.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Stop mixing when no streaks of flour remain.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a few for topping if desired.
  7. Spoon batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full (makes about 24 mini muffins).
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use ripe bananas with brown spots for natural sweetness. Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins. If bananas are not ripe, speed ripening by baking at 300°F for 10 minutes. Tent muffins with foil if tops brown too quickly. Store cooled muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
