I'm going to make two dozen tomorrow morning, because "only" 12 of these muffins lasts just 2 days here. I apologize in advance if this becomes your normal, too.

Oh, this is a one-bowl, no-chill recipe, too!

Ingredients:

  • 300 grams overripe bananas 
  • 113 grams butter, melted
  • 50 grams granulated sugar
  • 50 grams dark brown sugar
  • 1 whole egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 30 grams sour cream
  • 4 ounces buttermilk see "Methods for This Recipe" for more info
  • 200 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 55 grams walnuts, chopped
  • 200 grams semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips plus a few more for topping muffins
  • 3 tablespoons turbinado sugar

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Grease a 12-cavity muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, line each cavity with a cupcake wrapper, then grease each wrapper to prevent the muffins from sticking.
  2. Peel the bananas and add to a large mixing bowl. Thoroughly mash the bananas with a fork until they resemble applesauce, then add the melted butter, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, sour cream, and buttermilk and stir to combine.
  3. In the same bowl, sprinkle in the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and fold until just combined– do NOT overmix! Fold in the walnuts and chocolate chips.
  4. Use a teaspoon to neatly scoop the batter into the prepared muffin wrappers, filling each one to the top. Generously sprinkle the turbinado sugar overtop each muffin. Optionally, sprinkle a few more chocolate chips over each muffin.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes (16 is my oven's sweet spot, so keep checking with a toothpick every 1-2 minutes after 15 minutes); you WANT the toothpick to have a few wet crumbs.
  6. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 2-3 minutes before turning out onto a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
