Chocolate Chip Banana Muffin

This is the first time I tried my Hand in making muffins..I always enjoyed the cup cakes back in India and wanted to try them at home..They turned out really good..To the banana muffins I added a few chocolate chips I had recently got from trader Joes..I like to munch the chocolate chips as a snack too..They are really tempting..Here is how I made the muffins..

                  

Ingredients


2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup mashed ripe bananas
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl...
In another bowl, combine all the liquid ingredients..the egg, oil, yogurt and vanilla..
Stir the liquid ingredients into dry ingredients just until moistened...
Fold in the mashed bananas and chocolate chips.
Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full...

                  

Bake at 350 degrees F for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean...
Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks...

                  

You can add your own choice of dried fruits and chopped nuts like badam,cashews,raisins apricots etc..

  6. For eggless recipe, soy flour can be used as an egg replacer.
