Do you know about this muffin man?

I needed a snack for the rest of the week and our trip to DC and VA this weekend. So I decided to make these delicious muffins. I used a basic recipe I had found, but changed a few things to my taste. I love this muffin it is sweet yet nutty and very satisfying.

Wheat Germ and Banana Muffins
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/4 cup flax seed
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3)
1/2 cup milk
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 16 muffin cups with foil muffin papers.

1) Sift first 4 ingredients into medium bowl. Mix in wheat germ.

2) Combine bananas, milk, eggs, oil and vanilla extract in large bowl and whisk to blend.

3) Mix in dry ingredients. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, dividing equally.

4) Bake muffins until tops are golden brown and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
