Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini muffin pan with paper liners or grease it lightly to ensure easy removal later.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt to evenly distribute all the leavening and flavor agents.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly, then stir in the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula just until combined; be careful not to overmix to keep the muffins tender.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the mini chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter so every muffin gets chocolatey pockets.
  6. Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tins, filling each cup about two-thirds full for the best rise.
  7. Bake: Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops are lightly golden.
  8. Cool and Enjoy: Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature for ultimate enjoyment.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix: Stir batter just until dry ingredients are moistened to avoid tough muffins.
  • Use room temperature ingredients: Ensures smoother mixing and better texture.
  • Fill tins correctly: Filling each mini muffin cup two-thirds full helps with even rising and perfect shape.
  • Test with a toothpick: Check doneness early to prevent overbaking and dryness.
  • Cool before storing: Prevents condensation to keep muffins fresh longer.
