• 1 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup low fat buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 1/3 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 and 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (equivalent to about 3 and 1/2 bananas)
• 6 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chip

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set the bowl with the dry ingredients aside.

In a medium bowl, mix together the buttermilk, egg, honey, oil, vanilla, and bananas.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and use a spatula to stir just until the dry ingredients are moist.

Add 4 tablespoons of the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and gently fold them into the batter.

Place paper liners into 12 cups of a standard sized muffin pan (or grease the cups of the muffin pan) then scoop the batter evenly into them.

Sprinkle the 2 remaining tablespoons of mini semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over each muffin.

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let the muffins rest in the baking pan for about 5 minutes and then remove them to a wire rack to cool.
