Ingredients
-
cooking spray
-
¾ cup white sugar
-
6 tablespoons butter, softened
-
6 tablespoons ground flax seed
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 eggs
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
3 ripe bananas, mashed
-
¾ cup chocolate chips
-
½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners.
-
Beat sugar, butter, flax seed, vanilla, and eggs together in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
-
Sift flour, salt, and baking soda together in a separate bowl. Mix creamed sugar mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, into the flour mixture until fully incorporated and batter is stiff. Beat bananas into batter with an electric mixer on low. Fold chocolate chips and walnuts into batter; spoon into the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup 3/4 full.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the tins for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Cook's Notes:
I use half whole wheat flour/half white, part agave or honey to increase the 'good for you' factor, and semi-sweet mini-chips to ensure that each bite has chocolate in it.
Also good zapped for 10 seconds and promptly served with vanilla ice cream!
