    How to Make Chocolate Chip Yogurt Muffins

    1. Preheat oven to 425°F, spray muffin pan with non-stick spray or use cupcake liners and set aside.
    2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and set aside.
    3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, Greek yogurt, almond milk and vanilla and then add in the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Add chocolate chips and gently fold together incorporating the chips throughout.
    4. Divide the batter into the 12 muffin cups and bake at 425°F for 5 minutes, then turn the oven down to 375°F and bake for another 13-15 minutes.
    5. Let cool for about 5-10 minutes and enjoy warm.

    How to Store Muffins

    • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

    Muffin Ideas

    • This is an excellent base of muffin batter for whatever you want to put in your muffins for different flavor and textures.
    • When baking these muffins, they will puff up really high, because we fired up the oven high for the first 5 minutes on 425 degrees.  That gives them a boost with lovely golden brown tones shining through.   
    • Don't be shy, you can use also use fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries or strawberries, if you don't want the chocolate chip explosions.  Add some nuts for some crunch.  Whatever your little heart desires, is your destiny when you choose what goes into your muffins!  Get creative.
    • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. They taste awesome warmed up in the microwave if you don't eat them served warm out of the oven.

      Hi Claudia! You can use regular milk, or any kind of milk you wish. The consistency should be fine, enjoy!

      I really want to try these muffins (they look yummy!) but I don’t have almond milk or buttermilk. Is there another substitute? Or will it change the consistency .

      I freeze them . When I want any I just zap for 30 sec in the microwave then put them in the oven at 350F for about 5minutes. This crisps up the muffin tops just the way I like them. This is a very yummy recipe. I have made it several times using berries as well..

      Really great muffins! About to make them for the third time. Also have made your banana chocolate chip recipe quite a few times - our go-to for preschool snack days. Thank you : )

      Just a heads up there's a typo. Step 2 says to add the chocolate chips to the dry ingredients, but then step 3 says to stir in the chocolate chips separately.
