  • Total Time: 24 minutes
  • Yield: 24 mini muffins

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain full fat Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla paste
  • ½ cup maple syrup

Add-ins

  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl until evenly distributed.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla paste, and melted butter together. Then whisk in the eggs until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  3. Incorporate Dry into Wet: Pour the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix to keep the muffins tender.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the batter evenly.
  5. Prepare Baking Pan: Spray a mini muffin pan evenly with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  6. Fill Muffin Cups: Evenly distribute the batter into the mini muffin pan cups. Optionally, top each muffin with additional mini chocolate chips for an attractive finish.
  7. Bake: Place the pan in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 12-14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool Muffins: Let the muffins cool in the pan for 2-3 minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to ensure muffins remain light and fluffy.
  • Using mini chocolate chips helps distribute chocolate evenly throughout each muffin.
  • Allow the melted butter to cool slightly before mixing with eggs to prevent cooking the eggs prematurely.
  • You can substitute the Greek yogurt with regular plain yogurt for a similar texture.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
