Moist Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins a personal favorite and I’ve been looking for a way to add more flavor. Cue the roasted plum puree and chocolate chips! YES!! Before you say whaaa?..trust me these muffins are moist, fruity and packed with chocolatey goodness.

I’m talking big fluffy addictive breakfast or anytime snack you won’t be able to turn down. Make the Roasted Plum Puree the same day or day before. Plum Puree makes the moist banana muffins even better. Then, all you need is 30 minutes for prep and baking time to get your tastebuds on a warm chocolate plum banana muffin!!

Now, the hard part is deciding between making jumbo or small muffins. I suggest going for jumbo. It helps when I tell myself, I only ate one:) Either way make sure to have a big glass of milk handy.

Tips for Moist Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

  • Don’t bake chocolate chip muffins on an empty stomach..there might not be any left!
  • Make Roasted Plum Puree prior and store in fridge.
  • Whole Wheat Flour can be replaced with All Purpose Flour.
  • If you don’t like or want to use plum puree, substitute with applesauce or apple butter.
  • Use over ripe mushy bananas with stronger flavor!
  • Not a fan of almond extract, no worries! Use 1 tsp of vanilla extract for recipe instead.
  • This recipe make 6 large muffins or 12 small muffins. I chose to use the big muffin wrappers and space them every other cup in the muffin pan. This allows more airflow between the muffins for a bigger rise and top!
  • Fill your muffin wrappers to the level of the tray for the larger ones and ¾ full in the smaller wrappers.
  • I chose to use chocolate morsels, because they are bigger and give more melted chocolate per bite! Feel free to switch out for small chocolate chips.
  • Bake you muffins on the lowest rack to prevent burning the tops. Rotate tray halfway during baking for even cooking.
  • Let muffins cool 5-8 minutes on rack before devouring!!

How to Store Banana Muffins

You can wrap cooled individual muffins in plastic wrap and store at room temperature for 3-4 days. Or place in the fridge if you desire.
