Peanut Butter Banana Muffins

Peanut Butter Banana Muffins Recipe from Allrecipes
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Serving size: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
 - 1 teaspoon salt
 - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
 - 1/3 cup plain smooth peanut butter
 - 1 cup white sugar
 - 2 large ripe bananas
 - 2 large eggs
 - 2 tablespoons milk
 - 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
 - 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
 
Icing (Optional)
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
 - 2 tablespoons milk
 - 1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar, plus more as needed
 

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or grease cups. Whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
 - Beat butter, peanut butter, and sugar together in a bowl with an electric mixer or whisk until light and fluffy. Add bananas and beat again until light and fluffy. Mix in eggs one at a time; stir in milk and vanilla.
 - Add flour mixture; mix on low speed until about 75% of flour is incorporated. Use a spatula to stir in chocolate chips, and to fully incorporate flour. Divide batter evenly between prepared muffin cups.
 - Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, 23 to 25 minutes.
 - Cool muffins in the tin for about 15 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes more.
 - For icing, combine peanut butter, milk, and powdered sugar in a bowl and stir until a thick icing is formed. Add more powdered sugar as needed for an icing thick enough to hold its shape when piped. Add icing to a piping bag and pipe in a zigzag pattern over cooled muffins.
