Description
Delicious and wholesome muffins loaded with oatmeal and chocolate chips, perfect for busy mornings or leisurely brunches.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or greasing it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract together.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients mix. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix—remember, a few lumps are perfectly fine!
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For the ultimate muffin experience, let the batter sit for about 10 minutes before baking. You can also add nuts or dried fruits for extra flavor.
