In a large mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup golden brown sugar, and 3/4 cup of unsalted melted butter. Use an electric hand mixer to combine everything together for about 1 minute on medium-low speed.
Then add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract along with 2 large eggs and mix them in on medium speed.
Now in a separate bowl, mash up 4 ripe bananas (medium-sized). Then add them to the muffin batter.
Then sift the dry ingredients in this order: 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Now mix the dry ingredients into the banana muffin batter.
Lastly, add 1 cup of chopped walnuts and 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips. Fold them in with a spatula.
Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and fill each muffin full. You should get about 12-13 full muffins out of this recipe.
Now top the muffins with extra chocolate chips and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-24 minutes.
Notes
Sift the dry ingredients- This helps them combine thoroughly with the wet ingredients and avoids clumps of flour that will taste bad in your muffin when they cook.
Ripen the bananas yourself- Place unripe bananas on a baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Let them cool before using them.
Use cupcake liners- This saves a lot of mess when you’re baking them as the melted chocolate can ooze out. They’re also easier to store when in paper liners.
Add chocolate chips on top- This step makes your Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins look professional with a delicious covering of melting chocolate chips generously sprinkled on top.
