Recipe Notes

-you can sub 1/2 cup applesauce instead of the banana.

-once you pour the batter onto the muffin pan, add more dark chocolate chips on top before you place it in the oven!

-This generally will take about 16-18 minutes baking time. Be careful NOT over-bake!!***  This will dry them out!  Keep a close eye on them and take them out right when they’re done.

-Do the toothpick test at about the 15 minute mark to see where you’re at.  Place back in the oven if need be, and watch closely.

-Store in an airtight container and keep in the fridge.  Best if consumed within 3-4 days.  I like to re-heat them back up in the microwave, it’s just like they’re fresh out the oven!
