- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup mashed, ripe banana about 3 medium bananas
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup almond milk *
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips I used mini
- ⅓ cup crushed walnuts
Set oven to 350 º Mash your ripe bananas in a large bowl with a fork. Be sure there are no big chunks. Next add the peanut butter, sugar, vanilla, eggs, almond milk and mix together with a spatula. We do not want to over mix the batter.
Mix together all the rest of the dry ingredients. Flour, baking powder, salt, chocolate chips and walnuts. Use a whisk if you can, this always help mix things best.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula so you don't over mix the batter. The batter should be similar to a thick pancake batter in texture. Next, line a muffin tin with paper liners. Add the batter, filling the cups to about 3/4 of the way full. I like to sprinkle a few more chocolate chips over the top for garnish.Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when poking the center of the muffin. Keep in mind ovens vary so keep a close eye on them. Let the muffins rest for a few minutes before enjoying. You can either bake the rest of the batter left over or discard any leftover batter. Most muffin tins only hole 12 muffins. I usually bake the leftovers so I have about 16 muffins :)
