How to make Double Chocolate Muffin

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 12-muffin pan with 12 muffin liners and set it aside.

  2. Mix dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt) and ¾ cup chocolate chips in a bowl.

  3. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add yogurt, vanilla extract, and oil. Whisk to combine.

  4. Incorporate dry ingredients with wet ingredients until well combined.

  5. Divide the muffin batter into the twelve muffin liners.

  6. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

  7. Let the muffins cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then place them onto a cooling rack to prevent moisture at the bottom.

  8. Optional: Melt ¼ cup of chocolate chunks for 60-90 seconds in the microwave and drizzle over the muffins after baking.

FAQS

  1. What is the best way to store double chocolate muffins for freshness?

    To keep your double chocolate muffins fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze them by wrapping each muffin in plastic wrap and placing them in a freezer-safe bag. They can last up to 3 months in the freezer. Just thaw them at room temperature before enjoying!

  2. Can I substitute yogurt in double chocolate muffins for a dairy-free option?

    Yes! If you're looking for a dairy-free alternative, you can substitute plain yogurt with unsweetened applesauce or a dairy-free yogurt made from almond, coconut, or soy. This will help maintain the moisture in the muffins while keeping them dairy-free.

  3. What can I pair with double chocolate muffins for a delicious breakfast?

    Double chocolate muffins pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk. You can also enjoy them with a side of fresh fruit, like strawberries or bananas, to balance the sweetness. For a more indulgent treat, serve them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

  4. How do I know when my double chocolate muffins are done baking?

    To check if your double chocolate muffins are done, insert a toothpick into the center of one muffin. If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, they are ready. Be careful not to overbake, as this can lead to dry muffins. Typically, they should bake for 20 to 22 minutes at 350°F.

  5. Are double chocolate muffins suitable for a vegetarian diet?

    Yes, these double chocolate muffins are suitable for a vegetarian diet as they contain no meat or fish products. However, if you are looking for a vegan option, you can replace the eggs with flaxseed meal or applesauce and use a plant-based yogurt and chocolate chips.
