CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BANANA MUFFINS

Posted on 248 views

Banana Muffins with a wind! These Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Muffins are chocolatey with a trace of peanut butter, and are best overwhelmed by a tall glass of milk and a companion.

It’s been a moment since I’ve imparted a biscuit formula to ya’ll. Past time, really. So I chose it should have been a chocolate biscuit, and since I appear to consistently have over-ready bananas and I end up cherishing peanut butter, I’m sharing a blend of the entirety of that. Whoopee!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter – melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cup mashed bananas – approx 3 medium bananas
  • 1/2 cup light sour cream – or greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter – softened in the microwave
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 12-cup muffin pan with liners.
  2. Mash bananas with a hand mixer until runny. Warm the peanut butter slightly so that it pours easily.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Then add eggs, mashed bananas, sour cream light, peanut butter, and vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour, kosher salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Mix well, and pour into the wet ingredients.
  5. Spoon the muffin batter into the muffin liners to almost the top. Sprinkle with a few extra chocolate chips plus the peanut butter chips. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until done in the center.
  6. Bake the additional muffins after you remove the first 12. You should get a total of approximately 16 muffins.
