- 1 cup + 2 1/2 Tbsp all-purpose flour

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a standard size muffin tin with 12 cups.
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the banana puree, yogurt (or sour cream), egg, and vanilla. Beat on low until combined. Add the melted/cooled butter, mix on low for 10 seconds.
