How to make these chocolate chip banana muffins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Then grease a muffin tin with cooking spray, any kind will work but I use coconut oil, or line with muffin liners.

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, aside from oats and chocolate chips. Be sure not to over mix the batter, muffin batter shouldn’t be completely smooth.

Then fold the oats and chocolate chips into the batter. Distribute the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each almost to the top. I like adding additional oats and chocolate chips to the top of each muffin but this is optional.

Bake muffins for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, then cool the muffins on a wire rack for 10-15 minutes.

How to store these muffins

These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. However, if you want to store the muffins for longer, keep them in the fridge for 1 week or freezer for a few months.

Tip: make sure to allow muffins to cool completely before storing to ensure they don’t get soggy.
