Ingredients
4 ea
banana, ripe, mashed
150 mL

1 ea

grape seed or vegetable oil
375 mL
Red Fife whole-wheat flour
7 mL
baking powder

Step by Step Instructions
- In a large bowl, stir together mashed bananas, sugar, egg and oil. In a separate bowl, combine all the dry ingredients and add to banana mixture, folding together just until combined. Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin. Preheat oven to 180 C (350 F). Fill each muffin cup 1/3 full with batter, top each with 5 ml (1 tsp) of the peanut butter and 1 chocolate chip. Cover with the remaining banana mixture and top with a chocolate chip. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Chef’s tip: Omit peanut butter and stir in 250 ml (1 cup) bittersweet chocolate chips or 250 ml (1 cup) finely chopped walnuts or both.
