2 cup self-raising flour

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup milk

1 egg

60 gram butter, melted

3/4 cup mashed overripe banana

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Line a 12-hole (1/3-cup) muffin tray with paper cases.

2.Sift flour and cocoa into a medium bowl. Stir in sugar. Make a well at centre.

3.Whisk milk, egg, butter and banana in a jug; add to flour mixture. Add chocolate chips; stir until just combined (do not over mix).

4.Spoon mixture into prepared holes. Top each with a banana chip to decorate. Bake 20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted at centre comes out clean.

You will need 2 overripe medium bananas for this recipe. Dried banana chips are in the health food aisle. Do not over mix batter-it will produce flat-topped muffins.
