  • Total Time: 35-40 minutes
  • Yield: 8 muffins

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 and 1/4 cup oat flour (certified Gluten Free, if needed)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tsp coarse sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line a muffin tin with liners sufficient for 8 muffins to prepare for baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix the pure maple syrup, avocado oil, Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla paste until smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly into the batter.
  5. Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin liners, filling each nearly full. Optionally, sprinkle about 1/4 teaspoon of coarse sugar on top of each muffin for a slight crunch and sweetness.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean or the muffin tops bounce back when lightly pressed, indicating they are fully cooked.
  7. Cool Muffins: Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes to set, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Use certified gluten-free oat flour if you need the muffins to be gluten-free.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the muffins tender and light.
  • Maple syrup adds natural sweetness, but you can substitute with honey or agave if preferred.
  • Adding coarse sugar on top is optional but creates a nice texture contrast.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
