I came across this recipe a few nights ago and decided to give it a try. It's been a long time since I've baked anything with bananas; the last time I used them I made some sort of chocolate chip banana bread, half of which has been sitting in the back of freezer for months now...
These muffins are just like I expected them to be: moist and not overly dense. My bananas weren't at their ripest, but the muffins still have a pretty prominent banana taste, and the chocolate chips do a great job of tying everything together. I halved the recipe, yet I still ended up with way more muffins than I know what to do with!
