Serves: 15 muffins

Ingredients
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 2 bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp of vanilla
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup of dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
  1. Preheat the over to 375 degrees F.
  2. Combine peanut butter, bananas and eggs into a bowl and mix everything together until combined.
  3. Add in vanilla and honey and continue to mix.
  4. Finally add baking soda and pour vinegar right over the top...I like watching the baking soda bubble and fizz and the vinegar activates it:)
  5. Blend one last time and you're ready to go. You should have a relatively runny consistency at this point, don't worry, they will still rise in the oven.
  6. Now you have two options, leave the mix as it or stir in a handful of chocolate chips. I tend to steer clear of adding the chips at this point, as they all tend to settle to the bottom of the muffin.
  7. Carefully pour batter into a lined or greased muffin pan (I like using muffin cups, as it makes clean up a breeze)
  8. Now add the chocolate chips, a small palm full at a time, by setting them on the top of the mix and pressing them down a bit in the center, then resting a few right on top. Kids tend to argue as to the actual existence of the chips if they cannot be seen on top of the muffins:)
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. 
  10. Remove and place muffins on a wire cooling rack. 

Enjoy!
