Banana & Blueberry Chocolate Chip Muffins

Fluffy Healthy Banana Muffins with juicy blueberries and melt-in-yo’-mouth chocolate chips

Banana and Blueberry Chocolate Chip Muffins - Cafe Delites

This was one of those situations where I couldn’t make up my mind if I wanted banana muffins…or blueberry muffins…or chocolate chips muffins…so I merged them to have them all in one. Yeah, I did. And it works. Its totally works.

Chocolate chips…in my opinion…make everything better. They soothe the soul.

It’s taken me a while to post these up on my blog. I don’t know why? I’d forgotten all about them until yesterday when I was clearing out all of my old photos. As soon as I saw these, I slapped myself upside the head. Why oh why have I not posted these? These are baddddd to the bone…with guitar riff and all.

I took these pictures when they were smoking hot straight out of the oven. Ripping them apart, burning my fingers, and licking the mess I was making, I couldn’t help but have a stripper soundtrack playing in the back of my mind. My eardrums thrummed with a sexy song and phat bass line that I normally hear with chocolate. These are sexy. Simply put. A flavour so sexy and so sinful, yet they’re healthy? I know…sometimes I have to pinch myself.

I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I never wait for anything to cool down when they come out of the oven. Never. Unless there’s an emergency, like those toilet emergencies where when you gotta go, you gotta go. But other than that, I never wait. You can count on me to burn every finger ripping cakes and muffins out of their pans, and then as if that’s not enough, proceeding to burn my mouth and my tongue, flapping my arms and hands around like an excited chicken. Flapping them to try and cool my mouth (because that really works), excited when they turn out better than I imagine. And excited that I can have more than one.

Because one is never enough.

    Karina!
    These are by far my favorite muffins and I bake a lot. They are easily removed from the prepared muffin pan without needing a paper liner. I only needed 20 min. for them to bake perfectly at 350 degrees. You are right, it’s difficult to stop at one when warm from the oven. SO YUMMY! =>

      Hey Tiana! If using oat flour, you may need to increase the baking powder to 2 teaspoons and see how you go. I can’t personally guarantee the outcome as I haven’t tried it! But I’d love to hear how you go if you try them!

    If I use whole wheat flour instead of spelt will it change the nutrition info?

      Yes it will, but only slightly. They have similar nutritional macros 🙂

      I’m not sure Fay? I have a fan forced oven and sometimes that tends to crisp things and make them browner than normal ovens. Maybe it’s that? I hope they came out good though?! Xx

    I love blueberry muffins, I love banana muffins.. and I especially love choc chips muffins – but I have never tried the combination of all three before! I can imagine how good these must have tasted! Especially loving the gooey chocolate interior. Craving one of these to devour right now!
