Ingredients
  

  • 3 large bananas, mashed
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup milk of choice
  • ¼ cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp ground flax
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • 1½ cups whole wheat flour
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp salt

  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix all the wet ingredients except the zucchini (bananas, egg, yogurt, and oil).
  3. Make a hole in the middle of the mixture and add all the dry ingredients except chocolate chips.
  4. Mix until well combined, ensuring not to over mix as this makes the muffins tough.
