Servings: 36
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain whole milk unsweetened greek yogurt
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a mixing bowl until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the greek yogurt, vanilla extract, melted butter, and maple syrup.
- Whisk the eggs into the other wet ingredients.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined using a rubber spatula. Do not over mix the batter.
- Fold in the mini chocolate chips using the rubber spatula.
- Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick spray.
- Distribute the batter into the pan, filling each mini muffin tin ¾ of the way full. The easiest way to do this is by using a mini cookie scoop. Note - this will make 1 and a half tins full of muffins, you will not use all the batter for one muffin tin. It will yield 36 mini muffins in total
- Bake the mini muffins at 350°F for 12-14 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean
- Cool the mini muffins 2-3 minutes in the pan, then remove them onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely
