- The best bananas for this recipe are ones that are very ripe and turning brown (but not yet black!)
- Use a cookie scoop to transfer the batter into the muffin cases - this will make sure they are all even.
- Top each muffin with a couple of choc chips so that they look perfect.
- These muffins freeze really well, making them perfect for batch-baking. Store them in the freezer in an airtight bag or container for up to 3 months.
