They are more often used in banana chocolate chip muffins baked in bulk for quick snacks, breakfast out the door and sometimes a dessert. They are just as easy as banana chocolate chip bread with a bonus of baking quicker and individually frozen.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin pan with liners or non-stick spray. Cream bananas, oil, sugar, and eggs well. Combine the dry ingredients and add to the mixture. Blend well. Add yogurt or sour cream and vanilla. Stir well. Fold in the chocolate chips. Scoop into muffins cups using an ice cream or cookie scoop.
