Dry Ingredients
- 1 (6 oz) Package of Pioneer Sweet Cream Baking Mix
Wet Ingredients
- 1 Large Ripe Banana
- 3/4 cup Water
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup Miniature Chocolate Chips, plus 2-3 tbsp extra for topping
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the muffins evenly.
- Mash Banana and Mix Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, thoroughly mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add the Pioneer Sweet Cream Baking Mix and 3/4 cup water to the bowl, then stir all the ingredients together until just combined without overmixing.
- Fill Mini Muffin Pan: Spoon the batter into a mini muffin pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Sprinkle a few extra miniature chocolate chips on top of each muffin for an appealing chocolate topping.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the muffins are cooked through and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy these mini muffins warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For best results, use a ripe banana with brown spots to maximize sweetness and moisture.
- You can substitute the Pioneer Sweet Cream Baking Mix with your favorite all-purpose baking mix if unavailable.
- Miniature chocolate chips melt well but regular-sized chips can be chopped for a similar effect.
- Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
