Egg-Free Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Many, many years ago we got a muffin book in my family. I liked muffins already, but since then, I love them. These small little goodies, sweet or savory, creamy or chocolaty - always a treat and a nice snack for lunch, dinner, in between or at any party. In that particular muffin cook book I remember one muffin, I really enjoyed; but everyone else in my family disliked it completely - the Chocolate-Banana muffin :)

A little while ago I experimented to make gigantic, fluffy, delicious muffins. I'm not quite were I would like to have them, but I found some nice recipes on the way. One is this here: one morning, we wanted to make some nice Banana-Chocolate chip muffins, but usually all recipes call for eggs. So I looked for a egg-free version. It was a little alternative in general, but after altering some ingredients, I got it working. And with the right baking time, they become a nice crunchy outside with a soft fluffy core - delicious.

Set oven to highest temperature before you start (that's a trick to get the muffins bigger: they get a shock rise right at the start).
In a blender I mixed 2 bananas, 2tbsp water, 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4cup oil and 1/4 cup milk. Mix in a bowl 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 3tsp baking powder, 1/4tsp salt and chocolate chips.
Prepare your tray, either with paper cups or butter. Mix wet and dry ingredients for only a few seconds, so it looks more or less uniform (too much, and a lot of rising gets lost). Fill in the forms and put in the oven. Reduce heat to 200C and bake for about 15min until golden brown, and crunchy if possible...

Enjoy!
