1 Line a 12-cup muffin tin with 12 paper liners or generously spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
2 In a large bowl, thoroughly mash the bananas (you should have about 1 1/3 cups). Whisk in the eggs until thoroughly combined. Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until fully incorporated. Whisk in the peanut butter until thoroughly combined, then fold in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips.
3 Using a 1/3-cup dry measuring cup, portion the batter into each muffin cup, then evenly distribute any remaining batter among the cups (cups will be full). Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips evenly over the batter (about 1/2 teaspoon per muffin).
4 Bake until the edges of the muffins begin to brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 17 to 20 minutes, rotating the muffin tin halfway through baking.
5 Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Transfer the muffins directly to the rack and let them cool for at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. Leftover muffins will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Love the recipe? Leave us stars and a comment below!
