Since I thoroughly enjoyed those Baked brownies, I was eager to try another recipe in their cookbook that caught my eye: banana espresso chocolate chip muffins.
These muffins are rather like the muffin version of that banana bread with chocolate recipe that I love. This recipe caught my eye because of the espresso factor. I was really excited (and hesitant at the same time) about what that would taste like. And somewhat disappointingly, I really couldn't taste espresso in these muffins at all! Maybe my palate just isn't sensitive enough but the espresso element could definitely be bumped up if you're so inclined. In comparison to the banana bread, these muffins are a bit drier (the bread has a bit of yogurt in it which adds moisture) but still very good. The flavors are very much the same overriding banana and chocolate - a combination that I've discovered is quite addicting.
