12 muffins

1 Teaspoon salt
1 egg

2. In medium sized bowl, beat egg. Add banana and mash thoroughly, using a potato masher. Stir in Miracle Whip. Add to dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.

Banana chocolate chip muffins recipe

This recipe is from Crystal Paine [2] and is included in her ebook, "Simply Centsible Breakfasts [3]".

15 minutes
20-25 minutes

These banana muffins are so delicious!! The banana bread part is soft and spongey, with a great flavor and texture! The chocolate chips on top make them look pretty, and help satisfy my sweet tooth. ;) These muffins are quick to make, and are good eaten warm, cold, or several days later! My rating: 10/10

Also, for those interested in substituting, I have used sour cream in place of the mayonnaise with excellent results. I really couldn't tell a difference! :)

THE BEST!
I made this recipe this morning and it is absolutely FABULOUS! To make it a little healthier I used half wheat & half unbleached all purpose flour. I also used half brown & half white sugars. My little boys LOVED them and I can't wait to see my husband's reaction.

I made these muffins yesterday and they were the best that I have ever had. They were even better this morning. This recipe is a keeper!

Great!!
This is the fourth banana muffin recipe I've tried and it's absolutely delicious!!! It is by far the best recipe I've found!! I also used the Mayo and was a little wary at first but they were excellent. I will definitely recommend this recipe to friends and family!!

Fabulous
I made a batch of these yesterday and we loved them. Because we don't buy mayonnaise and don't have an adequate subsitute for sour cream over here, I put yoghurt instead. Sam said they were the best ever! When I told him this was once again one of Tammy's recipes, he said "Tammy is wonderful" :) Thank you Tammy

easy-peasy and yummy, too!
really good! I was hungry for bananas but can't eat them raw/plain as they make me sick so I whipped up a batch of these. I, too, was a bit dubious of the mayo because the batter smelled like, well, mayo! but once they were baking the whole house smelled deliciously banana-ish.:-D Very nice texture and a great snack!

Used whole wheat flour!
I used whole wheat flour and added some wheat gluten and they were the most moist (say that ten times fast!!) muffin I have ever made with whole wheat flour. I am wondering if I should start using mayo in all my muffin recipes!:) I mixed the choc chips in with the wet ingredients and that seemed to work out fine too. I think I would add more banana next time...thinking the wheat has so much flavor that it over powered the banana a little too much. Thanks again Shorty

Delicious!!
I didn't have mayo or sour cream, so I used 1/4 cup canola oil and 1/4 cup applesauce. I also used half whole wheat flour. These were so yummy and very popular at the luncheon I took them to. A wonderful snack you can feel healthy about eating...can't beat that!

Great!
I subbed the mayo with sour cream. I also made a batch without the chocolate chips and added chopped walnuts. They were delicious.

Best Banana Choc Chip Muffins
Like another reviewer, I was skeptical about mayo in cooking. WOW! These are by far the best Banana Choc Chip Muffins we have had. So tender and moist. The right amount of sweetness. My family likes me to use milk choc chips. The recipe made 20 for me. I froze the second batch for my husband in his lunches. They are gone too! These muffins are just as good after they have been thawed. Now we are just waiting on some bananas to get ripe so we can make these again. Thank you Tammy & Crystal.

The best Banana Chocolate Chipper yet
Ok, I have made so many different versions of chocolate chip banana muffins my head could explode. My 5 yr old loves them and it's one of his favorites but he is oh so picky. I used to use a biscuit mix recipe and that is what he was used to so when I had to find (food allergies)a "scratch" version he was not so crazy about the results. They are usually too heavy or dense or they don't rise high like he likes them. His older brother and I ususally end up eating them. Well, this recipes finally did the trick. The chocolate chips sprinkled on top gave him the illusion of more chocolate than the other muffins I used to make even though the measurment is the same. They are very moist. I did substitute the egg with egg replacer and the mayo with 1/4 c. canola and 1/4c.applesauce. We can't use eggs for Josh. This recipe is replacing all my other versions from now on. Thanks Tammy.

Excellent
I made these today with my four year old son who loved putting the chocolate chips on top. These were quick,easy and delicious. I did add a teaspoon of vanilla to the batter for a little extra flavor. Thanks again for another excellent recipe!

Fantastic!
We LOVE these muffins. They're so soft. I somehow got 20 out of the batch. They freeze great, and my husband is enjoying them for breakfasts on the go =) Thanks Tammy & Crystal!

Very yummy!
These were like banana bread with chocolate chips on top! Yuuuum! I used plain mayo instead of Miracle Whip.

Great! 10/10
These muffins are great! I like them because they're like cupcakes (i.e. sweet) more than muffins. :-) You must try these!

Used Pumpkin instead of Banana!
WOW! I had some canned pumpkin in the cupboard, but no bananas and we were craving something sweet. So I whipped a batch of these up using 1 1/2 cups pumpkin instead of the bananas, but followed the rest of the recipe to a T. These are the moistest, yummiest muffins I have ever had! Can't wait to try it with the banana.

Yummy
These had a good flavor and my husband really liked them. I didn't care for the texture too much, but that could be due to overmixing or some other error on my part. The chocolate chips on top made them so yummy!

Simply delightful
These are so delicious! I made a double batch just a couple of days ago and I again made a double batch this evening. I didn't have anymore mayonnaise left, so I used sour cream and they turned out just as good! :) My family enjoy eating these tasty muffins!!

Delectable!
Just made these wonderfully easy muffins this afternoon. They are light and fluffy, and not too sweet. The banana flavor really shines. The little bit of chocolate chips on top make them all the more appealing. Delicious!
