Ingredients

Instructions

  • Use a regular 12-cup muffin pan.  Grease muffin pan or use muffin cup liners to line the muffin pan.  No need to grease the pan if you use muffin cup liners.
  • Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit. 
  • In a medium bowl, using electric mixer, beat 4 tablespoons of butter and 1 cup of white sugar on high speed for 1 minute until well-combined. You will get coarse looking mixture (not creamy).
  • Add 2 eggs to the butter-sugar mixture and continue beating for another minute until very creamy and very smooth.
  • Add mashed bananas, Greek yogurt, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar-eggs mixture, and continue beating, using electric mixer, until well combined – for about another minute.
  • In a separate medium bowl, combine sifted flour (do not overpack the flour, when measuring it using measuring cups!), baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
  • Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients, and mix, using large spoon, just until combined. DO NOT OVERMIX. If there are lumps – they will work themselves out during baking. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Fill muffin cups ¾ full. Bake for about 25 minutes. Cool on a rack for a little bit, then remove muffins from the pan and let them cool some more.
