Teresa Ambra
These delectable muffins are great for breakfast or snacks. They're quick and easy to whip up anytime, and because they're filled with bananas and sour cream, they're incredibly moist.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour bleached flour toughens baked goods
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp. sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 stick unsalted butter softened (1/2 cup)
  • 2 or 3 ripe bananas I always use 3 bananas
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips plus additional chips for the top of the muffins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°.
  • Mix sugar, baking soda, bananas, vanilla, sour cream, eggs and butter in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add flour and ¾ cup chocolate chips.
  • Stir just until moistened.
  • Pour muffin batter into greased or sprayed muffin tins.
  • Sprinkle more chocolate chips over top of each muffin in pans.
  • Bake in a preheated 425° oven for 5 minutes.
  • Adjust temperature to 350°.
  • Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Notes

NOTE: I added 10-15 chocolate chips to the tops of each muffin before baking.
NOTE: The secret to having muffins that raise perfectly every time is to start the baking at a high temperature (425°), and then lower the temperature to 350° after 5 minutes. This allows the muffins to raise properly. If you bake muffins at a steady 350° for the whole length of baking time, they will usually be flat on top.
