This banana raspberry muffin recipe is super versatile, here are some of the ways you can adapt it to suit yourself.

Gluten-Free - use your favourite gluten-free flour. I've tested this recipe with Doves Farm gluten-free flour.
Strawberries or Blueberries- Swap the raspberries for pretty much any other berry you like
Cinnamon: Add a little cinnamon. 1 teaspoon would be nice.
No Chocolate: omit the chocolate chips.
Double Chocolate: Remove one tablespoon of flour and replace with 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder.
