Banana and Chocolate Chip Muffins

I went to a friends sleepover birthday party yesterday evening, and I decided it would be quite nice to take along some treats for us all to share

Due to the fact that we had a lot of banana's in that needed eating, I decided to go down the banana route. I also felt it was important to include chocolate, because lets face it, what is a party without chocolate?! 

The muffins went down a treat with the girls and made my Great Grandma feel happy to get one given to her when we visited today!

Makes: 12 Muffins

Ingredients:

300g self raising flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

450g (roughly) bananas (weighed without skin)

110g caster sugar

1 egg

6 tbsp milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

100g bag chocolate chips

75g butter, melted

Directions:

• Preheat oven to Gas Mark 5
• Prepare the muffin tray with muffin cases.
• Mix flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda in a bowl.
• In a separate bowl mash the bananas, I used a potato masher.
• To the bananas add the sugar, egg, milk, chocolate chips and butter.
• Mix together the wet ingredients, once fully combined add these to the dry ingredients.
• Stir until just combined. Divide the mixture equally between the 12 cases.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Leave to cool on a wire rack or eat warm.

Enjoy!
