Chocolate Chunk Banana Muffin

3/4 c Wheat flour (I actually used 1/2 c wheat and 1/4 white flour)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 c sugar
2 1-2 ripe bananas, mashed
3 tbsp butter melted
1 egg
1/4 c choco chips
2 tbsp chocolate almond spread (such as nutella)

Heat oven to 400 and either grease a muffin pan or use muffin papers.

Mix dry ingredients. Add mashed bananas, butter, and egg. Mix well then add chocolate chips. Pour into muffin tins. Using a spoon swirl some the the nutella spread (I heated it so it would spread better) on top of each muffin. Bake for about 15 minutes or until knife comes out clean.


PS 3 out 4 kids love them. You can't beat that.
