Ingredients
  

For the Muffins:
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • Optional: chocolate chips or white chocolate chips to sprinkle on top for a delightful twist

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Fork or potato masher
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mini muffin tin
  • Silicone spatula

Method
 

Stepwise Method:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your mini muffin tin with a little oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, take the ripe bananas and mash them with a fork or potato masher until they are smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Add the peanut butter, egg, baking soda, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the mashed bananas. Mix everything together until well combined and creamy.
  4. If you’re using chocolate chips or white chocolate chips, fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.
  5. Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop, fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter.
  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or store for later!

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best sweetness and texture.
  • Feel free to experiment with different nut butters if you’re not a fan of peanut butter.
  • For a vegan option, substitute the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons water).
