More Bananas!

So how many of you have forgotten about your yellow ripe bananas you bought a few days ago? You see now that they're a bit over ripe and brown, and perhaps a bit squishy, but don't throw them away! Over ripe bananas are actually sweeter than your yellow ripe naners and, I believe, best for baking! So here I have for you Banana walnut chocolate chip muffins! Enjoy! =D

Ingredients:
  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup plain or vanilla yogurt 
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mashed over ripe bananas (about three) 
  • opt- 1/2 cup walnuts
  • opt- 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips 
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tins with baking cups or spray with cooking oil 
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts in the dry ingredients so they wont sink to the bottom of the muffin while baking.
  • With an electric mixer, beat brown sugar, egg, oil, yogurt, and vanilla extract until well combined, slowly mix in dry ingredients until just combined and fold in bananas at the end.
  • Fill batter two-thirds of the way full in lined or greased muffin tins and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean, let cool on wire rack before serving and enjoy!
