Banana Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins

Here’s yet another recipe to make use of those overripe bananas in your fruit bowl. Basically, banana bread with sour cream, peanut butter, and chocolate chips – the addition of peanut butter, wow – it never occurred to me, and it’s tasty! I got 20 muffins from this recipe, so there’s plenty to share.

• 1 cup mashed bananas (very ripe, about 2 – 3)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1/2 cup melted butter or oil
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chocolate chips

1. Line muffin pans with 20 liners, preheat oven to 350º.
2. In a large bowl mash bananas, sugar, brown sugar, oil or butter, sour cream, peanut butter, eggs and vanilla. Mix until well blended. Add in the flour mixture until just incorporated, do not over mix. Stir in the chocolate chips.
3. Divide among the muffin liners and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, testing with a toothpick after 15. Cool on a wire rack.
