Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
Wet Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
Sweeteners and Leavening:
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by heating to 200°C (400°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the liquid ingredients – milk, oil, and egg – until thoroughly blended.
- In a separate large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients – flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt – ensuring even distribution.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gently pour the wet mixture into it.
- Using a spatula, fold the ingredients together with minimal stirring, stopping just as the batter becomes combined to avoid overmixing.
- Carefully incorporate chocolate chips into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout.
- Generously fill each muffin cup approximately two-thirds full with the prepared batter.
- Sprinkle additional sugar across the top of each unbaked muffin for a delightful crisp texture.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Choose room temperature ingredients for smoother batter mixing and better texture.
- Use a light hand when stirring wet and dry ingredients to prevent tough, dense muffins.
- Swap chocolate chips with fresh blueberries or nuts for variety and different flavor profiles.
- Line muffin tins with paper liners or grease well to ensure easy removal and clean serving.
