Mini Muffins Recipe

Ingredients:
2¼ cups (280 g) all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2⁄3 cup (125 g) sugar
2 large ripe bananas (peeled and roughly chopped)
1 large egg
8 fl oz (240 ml) milk
3 oz (85 g) butter (melted)
1 heaping cup (175 g) milk chocolate chips or chunks

Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Grease a 24-hole mini-muffin pan with butter (or line it with minimuffin paper baking cups) to prevent the muffins from sticking.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the sugar with a wooden spoon until all of the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

In a small mixing bowl, mash the two ripe bananas with a fork until nearly smooth, but with a few lumps remaining this will give the muffins a nice texture.

In a pitcher, whisk together the egg, milk, and butter, then pour onto the mashed banana in the bowl. Stir the ingredients together until they are thoroughly combined.

Add the egg and banana mixture to the flour mixture. Stir the ingredients together with a wooden spoon until just combined, then fold in the chocolate chips or chunks.

Spoon the mixture into the pan and bake for 10–12 minutes. Leave the muffins to cool in the pan, then remove them and repeat with the remaining ingredients to make a second batch.

Variation:
Try using white chocolate chips or chunks in Step 5 instead of milk chocolate chips. You could also experiment with other flavors of chocolate.
