Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1 ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (240g) full fat plain greek yogurt, at room temperature
- ½ cup (150g) pure maple syrup
- ⅓ cup (80ml/65g) liquid oil (olive oil recommended)
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- ¼ cup (60ml) whole milk, at room temperature
- ½ cup (85g) semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoon coarse raw sugar for sprinkling on top
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, oil, eggs, vanilla, and milk until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Before fully mixing in the flour, fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Using a large cookie scoop or two spoons, fill the muffin liners to the top with the batter. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips and some coarse sugar on each muffin.
- Bake the muffins for 15-20 minutes until golden on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow them to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For added flavor, you can substitute the olive oil with melted coconut oil.
Using a mix of regular and mini chocolate chips enhances both the texture and appearance of the muffins.
These muffins are perfect for freezing; just thaw before enjoying!
