¼cuphalved raspberries(tossed in 1/2 tablespoon all-purpose flour)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray 6 cups of a muffin tray with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
In the bowl of a Kitchen Aid Mixer (or medium bowl and electric mixer), mix sugar and butter at medium speed until combined.
Add egg and mix well.
Add mashed banana and vanilla and mix until combined.
Stir in the flour mixture just until moist. Make sure not to over-mix.
Stir in the chocolate chips and gently stir in the raspberries.
Pour the banana mixture into the six prepared cups of the muffin pan. Optional - add extra chocolate chips and raspberry halves to the tops of the muffin batter.
Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan on a wire rack. Remove from the muffin pan and place on the wire rack to cool completely. These muffins can also be served slightly warm.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for 4-5 days on the countertop.
For an extra tasty treat sprinkle some coarse turbinado sugar on top of the muffin batter right before baking.
