How to Make Healthy Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Double Chocolate Chip Muffin Cups

PIN IT

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with oil spray.
2. Whisk wet ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), egg, and vanilla until creamy.
3. Add dry ingredients: Stir in oat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until just combined. Don’t overmix—this keeps muffins tender!
4. Fold in chocolate: Gently stir in the mini chocolate chips and dark chocolate chunks.
5. Fill muffin cups: Divide batter evenly among 8–10 muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full.
6. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few fudgy crumbs.
7. Cool & enjoy: Let muffins cool for 5 minutes before removing from tin. Enjoy warm with a glass of milk or coffee!
