Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 7 tablespoon (105ml) oil (sunflower, canola, or vegetable)
  • 6tbsp (90g) sour cream or yogurt
  • teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (180ml) milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line the muffin pan with paper liners and lightly grease them with nonstick oil spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  • Add the chocolate chips to the dry ingredients and gently toss to coat evenly.
  • In another large bowl, add sugar, oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Then add milk and whisk until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold everything together until just combined. Do not overmix. A few small lumps are perfectly fine.
  • Portion the batter evenly into each muffin tin. Fill each muffin tin all the way up to the top.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin liners, filling each one almost to the top. Top with a few extra chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 5 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking for another 12-14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Storing Suggestions

  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. 
  • For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to 1 week.
  • You can also freeze these Eggless Chocolate Chip Muffins for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature or warm in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.

Notes

  1. Measure Flour Correctly: Too much flour makes muffins dry. For the best results, weigh the flour or use the spoon-and-level method.
  2. Coat Chocolate Chips with Flour: Mixing the chocolate chips with the dry ingredients helps distribute them evenly throughout the muffins.
  3. Don’t Overmix: Mix only until no dry flour remains. Overmixing develops gluten, resulting in dense muffins.
  4. Fill the Muffin Cups Nearly Full: For tall bakery-style muffin tops, fill the cups almost to the top.
  5. Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This helps everything combine smoothly and creates an even batter.
