Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• cooking spray
• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 0.25 cup butter, softened
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup sweetened flaked coconut
• 0.5 cup chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup brown rice flour

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.

Step 3

Whisk all-purpose flour, brown rice flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl.

Step 4

Combine sugar, butter, and eggs in a stand mixer bowl. Beat on medium speed until smooth. Add bananas, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth. Add in flour mixture gradually, in 3 additions. Fold in chocolate chips and coconut; batter will be quite thick.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and edges are golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before transferring muffins to a wire rack to cool completely, 20 to 30 minutes more.
