Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cup gluten-free flour 1-to-1 baking flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • 2 whole eggs at room temperature
  • ⅓ cup melted butter
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mashed banana about 3 medium bananas
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line the muffin pan with paper liners and keep it aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together sugar and eggs. Slowly add the butter, yogurt, and vanilla extract. And finally, add the mashed bananas and combine everything.
  • Gently combine the dry and wet mixture without any lumps. Fold the chocolate chips into the muffin batter.
  • With the help of an ice cream scoop, divide the batter equally into 12 muffins and bake them for 18-20 minutes until the toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool down for at least 10 minutes.
  • Serve the muffins to enjoy.

Notes

  • Bananas – The Riper, the Better: The key to achieving maximum flavor and natural sweetness is to use overripe bananas. They not only bring sweetness to the muffins but also provide moisture and a distinct banana essence.
  • Mindful Mixing: Gently fold in the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Overmixing can lead to dense muffins, so aim for a lumpy batter rather than a perfectly smooth one.
  • Temperature Matters: Preheat your oven properly and maintain the correct baking temperature. Gluten-free baked goods can be sensitive, so accurate temperatures ensure even baking and perfect results.
  • Experiment and Enjoy: Feel free to experiment with add-ins like chopped nuts, dried fruits, or even a dash of cinnamon for an extra flavor twist.
