Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with liners or cooking spray.
  2. Mash ripe bananas in a bowl until smooth, leaving a few small lumps for texture.
  3. Stir Greek yogurt, egg, brown sugar, and vanilla into the mashed bananas until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
  6. Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Keep an eye on them!
  8. Cool muffins in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
