Ingredients

WET INGREDIENTS:

¾ cup mashed banana (210 grams - about 2 ripe spotty bananas)
¼ cup pure maple syrup (85 grams)

⅔ cup yogurt (160 grams - I used non-dairy coconut)

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ cup chocolate (plus more for topping, chocolate chips or chunks or chocolate bar chopped up)
⅛ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven at 375° degrees F and spray or grease a muffin pan with non-stick spray.
In a bowl mash up the bananas as smooth as possible and measure it out to ¾ cup or weigh it to 210 grams.
Add in the maple syrup, vanilla and yogurt and whisk.
Next add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder and sea salt, fold unti lcombined.
Fold in the chocolate chunks or chips.
Pour evenly into 7 muffin holes that have been greased with spray or coconut oil.
Place in the oven for 26 minutes, before removing make sure they are done by sticking a tooth pick in the center of the muffins and it should come out pretty clean and not gooey.
Let cool COMPLETELY about 20 minutes before removing from the pan.
Remove and let sit to continue cooling.
Makes about 7 muffins. Store in a sealed container on the counter for about 2-3 days.

Notes

Banana: Make sure you mash and measure the banana, don’t just use two bananas and assume it’s the correct amount. Be sure to use RIPE bananas- if they are not super ripe then mash them and place them in the fridge overnight to ferment and sweeten.

Flour: Be sure to spoon the flour into the cup and level it off with the back of a knife or for best results use a kitchen scale.

Liners: Do not use muffin liners for these muffins, you can use parchment paper in each muffin hole if you like but for best results just coconut oil each muffin hole.
