I’ve been dying to test out baking with coconut oil so I finally decided to replace the vegetable oil in this lovely looking recipe for Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins. I love trying new muffin recipes, don’t you? I was amazed at how easy the coconut oil subbed in for the vegetable oil! These muffins had a nice, light flavor and didn’t stick at all to the muffin liners, which was an added bonus!
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
- 1 cup mashed very ripe bananas (2 medium)
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/4 cup coconut oil {microwaved for about 20 second to soften}
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
Heat oven to 400ºF. Line 12 regular-size muffin cups with a muffin liner. Spray the liners real quick with cooking spray. {I always spray my muffin liners with cooking spray and even still they tend to stick a little. These didn’t stick at all!}

Just made your muffins and they were very moist and delicious! I used 2 ripe bananas and the favor came through subtlety so I may add another one the next time I make this.
