This banana muffin recipe is just dense enough and moist every time. I use Greek Yogurt in this recipe and it makes all the difference. This muffin recipe is dense, filled with flavor and never dry.
If you’ve been looking for a banana chocolate chip muffin recipe, this is your recipe too. These muffins are good with or without chocolate chips. Half of my family loves them without and the other half loves the chocolate and banana combo. When we make them at our house we make it both ways. Either way you like it, these muffins are incredible!
I prefer these easy banana bread muffins straight out of the oven with a slab of butter and glass of cold milk. Soooo good!
Tips for Easy Banana Muffins:
- Use over-ripe bananas. This will guarantee your muffins are sweet.
- You can also use bananas you’ve stuck in the freezer. Just be sure those bananas are thawed and the water drained off before you use them
- You can use cupcake liners if you prefer. If you use non-stick muffin tins, the muffins will come out really easily. (I still grease nonstick muffin tins. It makes clean up so much easier)
- If you don’t use chocolate chips in this recipe you will probably get closer to 15 muffins.
- The mini chocolate chip works great in this recipe!

Have you ever made your muffins with einkorn flour – how would I adjust the recipe 🙂

I have some recipe testing this week, einkorn banana muffins. I’ll be posting it in the next couple of weeks. Usually, you just need to reduce the amount of liquid by about a third. Thanks for asking! Any other recipes you’re looking for with einkorn flour?
