Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Preparation: Heat oven to 350˚. Mist a standard muffin tin with nonstick oil spray or line with cupcake liners (I like to mist them lightly with oil spray, too, to prevent sticking). Set aside.In a medium mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients (flour, salt and baking soda) and blend.In a separate mixing bowl, add the wet ingredients (mashed banana, milk, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla), and stir until well combined.Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until the batter is well-blended and there are no flour streaks. Gently fold in chocolate chips. Do not overmix. Divide the batter among the 12 prepared muffin tins (you can place an optional slice of banana on top for garnish) and bake in oven on middle rack for 20 to 22 minutes. Let cool before eating.
