Tips to Baking 1 Bowl Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

  • Using a whisk and spatula instead of a mixer will keep the muffins tender and fluffy.
  • We like to use Lily’s chocolate chips, but you can use any that you like! You could also leave them out all together.
  • It’s best to use really ripe bananas, but you don’t want to use more than 4 otherwise the texture will be too runny.
