Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 medium) bananas, very ripe
- 3/4 cup (6oz) plain 2% Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup (60g) vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup (60g) whole milk
- 1 tsp (5g) pure vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup (132g) granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp (13g) light brown sugar, packed
- 2 Tbsp natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1-1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1-2/3 cups (200g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- optional: 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375℉. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, use the back of a fork to mash the banana until only very small lumps remain. Add the yogurt and the egg and use the fork to whisk the mixture together until completely combined.
- Add the oil, milk, and vanilla, and stir to combine. Add the sugars and stir again.
- Using a spatula, stir in the cocoa powder, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Mix until the cocoa is completely incorporated.
- Stir in the salt and baking soda, then gently fold in the flour, until just combined.
- Divide the batter among 12 paper-lined muffin cups, about 3/4 full. A medium cookie scoop works best for this. Top with the chocolate chips, if using.
- Bake for 16-19 minutes, rotating once, until the muffin tops are gently domed, look set, and a cake-tester inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for 5-10 minutes, before removing and cooling completely on a baking rack. Serve warm or at room-temperature. Enjoy!!
