Scale
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- In your large bowl, start by combining the melted butter with granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk to blend these until smooth and well-mixed.
- Next, add in the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth and creamy. Fold them into the wet batter mixture.

- Using a spatula, delicately fold in the chocolate chips and the chopped walnuts.
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners and fill each cup almost to the top with batter. Bake for 20–24 minutes.
