The combo of banana and chocolate I think were made for each other. These are just absolute deliciousness. When I made these muffins I was making the cooking video and also filming for my show. That was kind of crazy to do both. The good information will be here in this recipe.
Ripe bananas are best to use because they have so much flavor and sweetness. When I can I use the combination of brown sugar and white sugar when it doesn’t affect the end results but enhances it in a different way. Why may you ask? I like the kind of rustic sweetness and moistness brown sugar gives. I used oil with butter in this recipe. Butter will give that extra boost of flavor and oil moistness. I think sour cream will balance out the sweet taste with a little tang and richness.
