How to Make Healthy Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Muffins

PIN IT

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together:

• Greek yogurt
• peanut butter
• honey or maple syrup
• egg
• vanilla extract

The mixture should be smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients

Stir in:

• oat flour
• baking powder
• salt

Mix gently until just combined. Don’t overmix—this keeps the muffins soft.

Step 4: Fold in Chocolate Chips

Gently fold in the chocolate chips, saving a few for sprinkling on top.

Step 5: Fill & Bake

Divide batter evenly into muffin cups (about ¾ full). Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if desired.

Bake for 14–18 minutes, until the tops are set and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.

Step 6: Cool & Enjoy

Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Enjoy warm for the softest centers!
