Ingredients

  • 2 average-sized bananas, peeled and mashed
  • 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar (optional, see note)
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with cupcake liners (lightly grease the muffin liners if using).

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the bananas, sugar, yogurt, egg, and applesauce.

  3. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips.

  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Don’t overmix.

  6. Remove the muffins from the tin and let them cool completely on a wire rack.
