Optionally Vegan, Banana Chocolate Muffins instructions
Mash bananas with a fork in a large bowl.
If you're making chocolate muffins, smash the chocolate bar into pieces with a mallet. Remove the foil first. It is easier when frozen and the bar is thin (Lindt chocolate)..
Preheat the oven for 180°C/356°C.
Add all the dry ingredients to the bowl (chocolate pieces, flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt) and give it a mix. The baking soda needs to spread evenly through the mixture to not get activated by moisture..
Add all the liquid ingredients (milk, oil).
Mix all with a large wooden spoon. You will use it to fill the moulds later..
Prepare muffin moulds on a baking tray. I use silicone ones from IKEA as they are reusable, you can fit all on one tray and don't need a special tray. But you can also use waxed paper moulds on a flat tray OR regular paper moulds in a muffin tray. If you have only regular paper moulds and flat tray, use two moulds for one muffin..
Fill the moulds to roughly 75% each. The muffins will grow!.
Bake on 180°C/356°C for 20-30 minutes..
Use a skewer to check if the muffins are done. Pierce a few of the muffins in the middle and if there is no dough left on the skewer, they are done..
In another mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a potato masher or fork till they're completely mashed and liquidy. To make these muffins, you need some really ripe bananas on hand. Dry ingredients: Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium/large size bowl and set aside. Wet ingredients: In a small bowl, mix oil, sugar and vanilla. Combine: Add the wet ingredients and bananas to batter and mix until just combined.
