Whole Wheat Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins (2)

1.Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with a little clarified butter.

2.In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted clarified butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended and smooth.

3.In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.

4.Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

5.Fold in the dark chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

6.Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full to allow for rising.

7.Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

8.Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
