Chocolate Banana Muffins

Story behind these muffins is the same. Bananas in my house were sitting idle without being put to any use. So I thought, ‘Hmm, let’s make some banana muffins’.

These muffins are an absolute delight. Try them and you won’t be disappointed. :)

Ingredients

All Purpose Flour/ Maida – 1½ cups

White Sugar – ¾ cup

Unsalted Butter – 1/3 cup

Baking Soda – 1 tsp.

Eggs – 1

Ripe Bananas – 2 ½ - 3, mashed

Salt – Pinch (if using salted butter, salt can be avoided)

Vanilla Extract – ½ tsp.

Milk Chocolate Chips – ¼ cup

Hersheys Chocolate Syrup – ¼ cup

Coffee Decoction – 1 tbsp.

Yield – 12 muffins

Method

1. In a large bowl, mix together butter (melted/ at room temp), sugar, eggs and vanilla. Set aside.

2. In another bowl, sift together flour, salt, soda. Add these dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Beat together well. Add the mashed bananas (Make sure that the banana is well mashed and gets properly mixed with the batter).

3. Add in the chocolate syrup, coffee decoction and chocolate chips in to the mixture and mix well.

4. Preheat the oven at 375 degrees F/ 190 degrees C.

5. In the meanwhile, Spoon batter into paper-lined muffin cups, filling each cup ¾ full.

6. Bake the muffins for 25 – 30 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted.

7. Cool the muffins and serve with a hot cuppa coffee. :)
