   Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, combine both flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside. With a mixer, combine the butter and sugar until blended. Add the sour cream and vanilla and blend well. Add the eggs one at a time. Once combined, slowly begin adding the dry ingredients in 3 batches, making sure ingredients are combined between additions. Once combined, add the bananas and beat until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

   Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full and bake for about 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Move to a cooling rack and let cool completely before icing.
