Cheat day: Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins (secret recipe)

You will have a love relationship sort of thing with these. Give them a try! You won't regret it...


♥ 118 ml sunflower oil or other type of vegetable oil (avoid olive oil unless you like strong taste)
♥ 2 eggs
♥ 64 gr sugar (you can use substitutes to make the recipe healthier)
♥ 3 mashed bananas (or 4 if you want the muffins more puffy)
♥ a tip of a teaspoon of vanilla extract
♥ 213 gr all-purpose flour
♥ 1 teaspoon of baking powder
♥ half teaspoon of baking soda
♥ a tip of a teaspoon of salt (to enhance the chocolate flavor)
♥ a tip of a teaspoon of cinnamon
♥ 200 gr of your favorite dark chocolate (chopped)



INSTRUCTIONS: Preheat oven to 200 Celsius degrees. Line a 12 piece of muffin tin or muffin liners (could be 12 of more, depending on how much content you will pour on them, I recommend not to pour more than half tin otherwise they will grow too crazy and break). 

Mash your bananas in a little bowl. 

In another small bowl add the chopped chocolate in little chips or pieces and add 3 spoons of the flour and mix them, this will make the chocolate not sink in the bottom of the muffin when you pour them in the form.

In a large bowl now, add the oil, eggs sugar, mashed bananas and the vanilla extract and mix well until everything is combined. Add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon and mix again until everything is combined nicely (don't worry if you notice lumps, they might be from the mashed banana!).

Now at last, add the chocolate chips or chops to the entire mix and mix them all together. Take a ice cream scoop or a tablespoon and place little by little, the mixture along the 12 (or more) muffin tins, remember ONLY fill half of the tin!

Place in the preheated oven for about 18 minutes and you can always check them with a toothpick to see if the center is uncooked or perfect (if the toothpick comes out sticky then needs couple minutes more).

Enjoy! They are perfect for breakfast and especially in winter time (probably because of the cinnamon!)

If you're trying them let me know! Would love to know how you liked them!
