You know those mornings when you wake up and you know you are going to need chocolate? Chubby Hubby Muffins are packed with not only chocolate but peanut butter too! Throw bananas in the mix, and you have got it all!
I have had peanut butter on my brain lately. I can’t help myself. I’ve been thinking about creating a peanut butter muffin recipe. I had my sleeves rolled up and was ready to head to work concocting some muffins. I happened to wander past the bananas and right then and there I had a light bulb moment! I knew bananas would make my peanut butter muffins extra moist!
Chubby Hubby Muffins are packed with peanut butter, bananas, and chocolate and peanut butter chips! I could practically mix all of those things together in a bowl and eat them with a spoon. (Minus the bananas, I really don’t like them by themselves.)
I had two friends who I had been meaning to bring dinner to, and never seemed to get around to it. I whipped up these muffins and my favorite breakfast casserole to share!
One of our friends actually works for us, and needed a meal. On his way home from work he came over and grabbed the casserole and muffins. Apparently, he tried one muffin on his way home from work and decided not to share with the rest of his family! Ya, they are that good! Be careful of they will make a hoarder out of you!
These muffins are a quick recipe. It took me no time at all to throw them together. Whether you serve them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or a snack they are going to bring chocolatey smiles to your little families’ faces! Promise!

I love the recipe but am diabetic so I would love to have the nutrition chart for recipes.
Amy Engberson says
I’m just starting to switch all my recipes over to a format that includes nutritional information. I’ll try and add this recipe to the top of my list!

Jess says
Oh wow, these look so good! Dangerous though, I have a feeling I would eat the whole tin!
Amy Engberson says
Haha! We could be soul sisters! I always have to share them with a friend…and they don’t seem to mind!
Venessa Adams says
Hi Amy, I was wondering if you can omit the Wheat flour in this recipe?
Amy Engberson says
I suppose you could substitute white flour for the wheat flour but I haven’t ever tried it. Let me know how it goes if you try it!
Shaina says
Just a note, you say these are one-bowl but then you say mash bananas and set aside (that’s one), mix wet stuff (that’s two) and mix the dry stuff in a separate bowl (that’s three!). I don’t really care, they sound amazing and I’m totally gonna make them anyways, but i just wanted to point it out to you!
Amy Engberson says
Shaina, I hope you’ve had a chance to make these muffins, even though they require more than one bowl! They are totally worth the extra dishes!
RCG says
Actually what was said is that she could just mix all those ingredients minus the bananas in one bowl and eat it by itself 🙂 Read carefuly.
Sounds like a delicious recipe!
Elaine Duckett says
I’ll have to try these, I think Dad would even eat the peanut butter to get through to the chocolate.
