The other day I was really in the mood for muffins. I had ripe bananas and chocolate chips. So I made some muffins and told my friends on instagram about them! Everyone seemed interested in hearing about how I made them so I whipped them up again and have the recipe for ya today. I love using up ripe bananas in any way I can and they work wonders to keep these whole wheat muffins moist. After having them in my house all weekend I have realized that these babies go well with breakfast, as a snack, and as a dessert!
Okay okay – I really just can’t stop eating them.
Putting chocolate chips in muffins makes its totally acceptable to eat lots of them. I mean these muffins have whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and honey in them, so they are a TOTAL health food. 🙂 And since I put it on the internet it’s true right? Summer bods are in full swing but we have to leave room for chocolate, so this is my suggestion for how to get that in!
These muffin tins were my grandmas, they are my favorite!
When they are still warm and the chips are all melty…. YUM!
Pin it!
