Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin Tops
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin Tops were a new one for me to make at home. I picked up a brand new Muffin Top Pan at Savers a couple of weeks ago. If you know me, you know I love a good thrift store score. I thought they would be a nice change from the traditional marble loaf I usually make.
I made them a little more bready, and not as dense as my usual banana breads by adding in 1 less banana to the ratio and a little more leavening (baking powder and baking soda).
As always, I like to add vanilla yogurt to my banana bread. It’s usually a single serve Greek yogurt like Chobani, but this time around I had a Yoplait Protein. These are new to me and for a first timer, I can’t complain for the price
Savers muffin top pan for the win! These little guys were a hit, and definitely will be joining the rotation of breakfast pastries.
