They’re the perfect easy breakfast or sweet treat to enjoy warm from the oven or share with friends!
Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a muffin tin with liners or spray with nonstick spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk the greek yogurt, maple syrup, cooled butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla until well combined.
1 cup plain greek yogurt, ½ cup maple syrup or honey, ½ cup unsalted butter, 2 large eggs, ½ cup milk, 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, use a rubber spatula to mix until just combined.
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt
Gently fold in the chocolate chips. Be careful not to over mix, the batter should be thick and some clumps may remain.
1 cup chocolate chips
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan, filling each almost to the top. Top with extra chocolate chips (optional).
Bake the muffins at 425℉ for 5 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350℉. Continue baking for another 10-15 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing them. Place them on a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
