Ingredients Needed for Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins

To make these outrageously delicious and healthy banana chocolate chunk muffins, you’ll need 2 large, sweet, and extra ripe bananas. I’m talking lots of brown speckles on them or almost black.

If yours look like that, you're well on the way to making some of the best banana muffins of your life!

You'll also need some maple syrup in place of sugar. Coconut flour in place of all-purpose. And some almond butter in place of regular butter or oil.

You'll find the rest of the ingredients along with detailed instructions in the printable recipe below.

Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins Instructions

Making these muffins is pretty much like making any other muffin. You'll first want to mash the bananas.

To do this you don't have to have a mixer or other fancy equipment. A fork, butter knife, or pastry blender works just as well to mash and cut them up.

You'll then mix the wet ingredients in one bowl, and the dry ingredients in another. Next, combine them, mix well, and then fold in the chocolate chunks.

After that, you'll divide the batter into the prepared muffin tins, then bake in the oven for 18 -20 minutes.

How do you keep muffins from sticking to cupcake wrappers?

It's happened to us all. You go to peel the cupcake wrapper off a muffin and it sticks to the paper. So how do you prevent that from happening? Simple! Use a tiny bit of non-stick cooking spray in each cup.

However, in most cases, if you wait and let the muffins cool to room temperature, they will naturally pull away from the paper wrappers on their own.

How to Store Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins

While these muffins are truly delicious, I doubt you'll eat them all in one day. To store any leftovers, keep them in an airtight container or Ziploc bag on the counter or in the fridge for up to 3 days.

You can also freeze them! Simply wrap each muffin in plastic, then place all of them in a ziptop bag. Stick them in the freezer for up to 2 months.

When you're ready to eat them, let them thaw at room temperature or rewarm gently in the microwave.
