Ingredients

Scale

For the Muffins:
1 cup whole wheat flour

1½ cups old-fashioned oats

1½ teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

¼ cup canola oil

½ cup dark brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup vanilla-flavored Greek yogurt (plain is great too!)

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the Streusel Topping:
2 tablespoons canola oil

⅓ cup dark brown sugar

½ cup old-fashioned oats

⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips


Instructions

  • Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.

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

  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk oil, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and Greek yogurt until smooth.

  • Combine: Gently stir wet ingredients into the dry mixture just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

  • Fill Muffin Cups: Divide batter evenly into prepared muffin tin, filling each nearly full.

  • Make Streusel: In a small bowl, stir streusel ingredients together with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle a generous spoonful over each muffin.

  • Bake: Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until muffins are golden and the streusel is crisp.

  • Cool: Let muffins cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Letting the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before baking helps hydrate the oats and results in a fluffier texture.

  • Try swapping in coconut oil or avocado oil for a twist on flavor.

  • These freeze beautifully—perfect for meal prep mornings!

  • Want extra chocolatey goodness? Drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled muffins.
