Banana White Chocolate Chip Muffins

These muffins are my kids’ absolute favourite! I usually make them with milk chocolate chips but lately my kids have been on a white chocolate kick. So, being that I am the best Mom ever, I decided to do an easy swap and BAM! I think they taste even better with the white chocolate.

I love how minor changes to a staple recipe can create something even better than the original. I have already posted this recipe as my banana bread but I will repost here in muffin form with the white chocolate chips. If you cannot find white chocolate chips, feel free to swap out for diced white chocolate chunks…. oh, I think I’m onto something for the next batch….

These banana muffins will have your kids gossiping, not only about how amazing they taste, but what a fabulous parent you are for baking them!
