ONE-BOWL Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

 

My favorite recipes include ingredients that are already in my pantry.. Especially for those late night hankerings and urges for baked goods.

 

I thought I was going to bake some classic banana bread, so I've had these ugly brown bananas in my fridge for days to slow the ripening.  I have heard and read that this is okay to do, but I've never actually done it until now.  Brown bananas turn me off.. to eat, but to bake with, wow.  They are perfect.  I even went to the store just to get sour cream.  

But these muffins popped up in my Google search, and I knew I was going to use.. do you remember?  How many bowls?  3?  2?  Nope!  Just 1 Bowl!

 

EVERYTHING begins with butter.. everything GOOD!

 

Hello, brown bananas..

 

Mashed nanners..

 

Add your suga', Suga'!

 

I brought you flour.

 

My newest favorite kitchen friend.  My Red Melamine Mixing Bowl with rubber nonstick ringed bottom and pour spout from CostPlus World Market.  Thanks, mom!  Just in time for endless Holiday baking..

 

"Dulces de chocolate, chocolate candy, chocolate candy".. {am I the only one who remembers that video from Spanish class?}

 

Of course, my spatula comes from Williams Sonoma.. all of them.  They're my favorite. 

They're the best.

 

Mix it, scoop it, bake it brown.

Baking it, and baking it, and baking it well..

 

Right down the middle.

 

Heyyyyyy, one's missing!  {oh my!}

This recipe was SOO easy and quick to make.

I followed the recipe {with a few changes}, and baked them for about 24 min.  They were already browning at 20 min., but still gooey in the middle, and 30 min. would have been too long.. so keep an eye after 20 minutes.
