Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup sunflower oil
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 lemon flavoring vial
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2/3 cup dark chocolate chips
Tools
- 1 Silicone Spatula
- 1 Electric Mixer
Instructions
To prepare the chocolate chip muffins, crack the eggs into a bowl (they should be at room temperature), add the sugar, and start beating at maximum speed with the electric mixer. When the mixture becomes light and fluffy, add the oil in a thin stream. Then, while continuing to mix, incorporate the yogurt and lemon flavoring.
Sift the flour with the baking powder and gradually add it to the mixture, continuing to mix.
Finally, add the chocolate chips to the batter, stirring from bottom to top with a spatula or spoon. Take the 12-muffin pan, place the paper liners, and fill them with 3/4 of the batter. Alternatively, if you don’t have the pan, you can use aluminum liners.
Bake in a static oven at 356°F for about 20/25 minutes, or in a fan oven at 338°F for the same time.
To ensure they are cooked, do the toothpick test: insert it into the center of the muffin and it should come out dry. If necessary, extend the cooking for another 2-3 minutes.
Once cooked, remove the chocolate chip muffins from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, you can enjoy them. If desired, you can dust them with powdered sugar.
Storage
Chocolate chip muffins can be stored for 3/4 days in an airtight container.
