Description

These Greek Yogurt Choc Chip Muffins are your new go-to for a healthier sweet treat! Lightly sweetened, super fluffy, and loaded with melty chocolate chips, they’re made with protein-rich Greek yogurt and come together in just one bowl. Perfect for breakfast, snack time, or when you need a little chocolatey comfort—fast!


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

2 ½ cups plain flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

⅓ cup sugar (or up to ½ cup if you prefer sweeter muffins)

Wet Ingredients:

2 eggs, lightly whisked

⅔ cup oil (canola, olive oil, or a mix)

1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt

¼ to ½ cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but adds a lovely touch)

Other:

1 ½ cups chocolate chips


Instructions

  • Preheat & Prep: Set your oven to 355°F (180°C). Line a muffin pan with liners and lightly spray with oil.

  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl or jug, combine the eggs, oil, yogurt, milk, and vanilla.

  • Combine: Pour wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just mixed. Batter should be thick—add a splash more milk if needed.

  • Add Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula.

  • Fill & Bake: Spoon batter into muffin liners, filling nearly to the top. Bake for 17–25 minutes, checking after 17. They’re done when golden and a skewer comes out clean.

  • Cool: Cool completely on a wire rack to avoid sticking liners.

  • Bonus Tip: Reheat for 15 seconds in the microwave for warm, gooey muffin magic!

Notes

Don’t overmix—lumps are okay!

These muffins freeze beautifully and reheat like a dream.

Feel free to play with add-ins like walnuts or shredded zucchini.

They’re naturally lower in sugar and high in protein, but still feel indulgent.
