For a deeper chocolate flavor, try using dark chocolate chips or adding a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the dry ingredients. Ensure your beets are finely chopped so they integrate seamlessly into the batter. These muffins are incredibly moist, thanks to the beets and banana. Store them in an airtight container to maintain their freshness. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, such as milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even a combination!
