Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C(fan)/350°F/Gas 4. Line a twelve hole muffin tin with muffin cases.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add 1 Banana (mashed), 2 Eggs, 320 g of 0% Fat Free Greek yogurt, 125 ml of Skimmed milk, 125 ml of Maple syrup and 1 tbsp of Vanilla extract.
  • Whisk it all together.
  • Add 280 g of Self-raising flour, 50 g of Cocoa powder, 1 tsp of Baking powder, 0.5 tsp of Baking soda, 1 tsp of Ground cinnamon and 50 g of Dark chocolate chips to the wet ingredients.
  • Fold everything together.
  • Divide the batter between twelve muffin cases. Top with a few extra chocolate chips (optional).
  • Bake for 25 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas. Bananas with heavily spotted skins are sweeter, softer and easier to mash. They also contribute more moisture and banana flavour.
  • Use thick Greek yogurt. A thick Greek yogurt gives the muffins structure and moisture without making the batter too runny.
  • If your yogurt is particularly thin, you may need slightly less milk.
  • Don't over-mix. Mix only until the ingredients are combined. A few small lumps are better than an overworked batter.
