Easy banana chocolate chip muffins that are delicious

These banana chocolate chip muffins are the best way to use leftover bananas before they get thrown away! They’re easy to make, full of delicious banana flavor, and can be made with nuts or no nuts! It’s one banana chocolate chip muffin recipe you’ll keep forever!

The Best Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

How many times have you been asked do you want chocolate chips added to that? Whether it’s pancakes, waffles, or muffins – the answer is always yes. Add chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, or some other form of chocolate to everything! Always.

The chocolate chips in these banana chocolate chip muffins is really what makes these better than all the other banana muffins out there. The chocolate chips + nuts really but if you don’t do nuts then at least stick with the chocolate chips!

This recipe is one that I got from my mom who made these for us all the time growing up. Any time we had leftover bananas we knew that when we got home from school those bananas would be replaced with these banana chocolate chip muffins.

Want to know the funniest thing about that? My mom doesn’t even like bananas. She made these muffins for us and sometimes even eats them (because they taste more like chocolate than bananas) but most of the time she just made them because she knew we loved them.

That’s just how moms are right?

How to Make These Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Simplest recipe ever. There’s no mix this first than that next. Literally you just mix in everything other than the chocolate chips until they’re all well combined. Then add chocolate chips and walnuts (if you want) until just combined. Bake and eat. So easy to make and both kids and adults will love them! Watch the video in this post to see how easy they are to make!

Healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

If you’re looking for healthy banana muffins, these are not them. But I do have a couple of options to make them healthier if you want or you can just skip these muffins and go with these healthy banana muffins instead (they’re sugar-free and egg-free). If you want to go with these ones you could omit the chocolate chips altogether, use less chocolate chips, or substitute the butter for applesauce but it will impact the taste. So on second thought, I just recommend these sugar free banana muffins instead.

What to Eat With This Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin Recipe

I’ll be honest – I’ve eaten these for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and between meal snacks. So really you could eat them with anything if you want but here are a few suggestions:
  • Triple berry smoothie bowl
  • Egg muffins with hash brown crust
  • Easy blueberry compote (this would be so good on top of these!)
  • Mint green smoothie
