So, if you have scrolled through my Instagram you have seen a couple other muffin recipes. Clearly, I like muffins!! I was trying to think about why I enjoy them so and this is what I have determined. They are easy! It is possible to whip up a quick dozen without too much effort and with stuff I have already in the kitchen. Yesterday, I had one kid sick with a fever and the other two had a two hour delay due to the polar vortex, so I had some extra time in the morning. It was a good morning for some muffins.
I thought about what I had on hand and found this recipe for Best Ever Greek Yogurt Chocolate Chip Muffins from The Busy Baker and this recipe did not disappoint. I love baking with Greek yogurt, it lightens up baked goods in a surprisingly delightful way. A couple of tips and tidbits about the recipe: The recipe calls for 2 cups of chocolate chips. My usually chocolate obsessed daughter thought it was a bit too much, so to appease her I would probably reduce it to 1& 1/2 cups. Do what ever you feel is right for you in the chocolate chip department though, I’m all for the more the merrier. Also, I don’t keep paper muffin cups on hand. To me it is just an extra step, so unless I really feel it is necessary or want to make something extra pretty I opt for spraying the muffin pan with Pam Baking with Flour. Your muffins will pop right out of that pan.
I hope you enjoy these and just in case you missed the other muffin recipes I have shared I am linking them below. xoxo, K
