Instructions

1. Preheat and Prepare Pan:
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Stir in the melted butter. Add the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

3. Add Dry Ingredients:

4. Add Chocolate Chips:
   Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.

5. Fill Muffin Cups:
   Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full. Add a few extra chocolate chips on top for a beautiful finish.

6. Bake:
   Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (a few melted chocolate smudges are okay!).

7. Cool and Serve:
   Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
