Healthy Whole Wheat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Healthy Whole Wheat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and get your 12-cup muffin tin ready by lining it with cheerful paper liners.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, take some softened butter and brown sugar, and with the help of an electric mixer, cream them together until the mixture is light and fluffy—this is where the magic begins! Next, add in creamy Greek yogurt, a fresh egg, and a splash of vanilla extract, then beat everything together until it’s smooth and well blended.

3. Step 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, fragrant ground cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.

4. Step 4

   Now, it’s time to combine the dry ingredients with the creamed mixture; do this gradually, mixing just until everything is combined—no need to overdo it! Gently fold in old-fashioned oats and semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter for delightful bites in every muffin.

5. Step 5

   Spoon the luscious batter into your prepared muffin cups, filling each one about three-quarters full to allow for some lovely rising.

6. Step 6

   Pop the muffin tin into your preheated oven and bake for around 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean—this is the moment you’ve been waiting for! Once they’re done, let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, soaking in that warm, sweet aroma, before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

7. Step 7

   Enjoy the delightful process and the delicious results of your baking adventure!.
