# Required Ingredients:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 190 grams whole wheat pastry flour or all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
03 - 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
04 - 0.25 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

05 - 240 grams plain whole milk Greek yogurt
06 - 60 milliliters coconut oil, melted
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
09 - 120 milliliters pure maple syrup

→ Mix-ins

10 - 170 grams mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
03 - Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently fold together using a rubber spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.
04 - Reserve a few spoonfuls of chocolate chips for topping, then fold the remainder into the muffin batter.
05 - Line a muffin tin with parchment paper liners or lightly grease the cups. Evenly divide the batter among 12 cups, then sprinkle with reserved chocolate chips.
06 - Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C for 18 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
07 - Remove muffins from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

# Additional Information:

01 - For a tender crumb, avoid overmixing the batter. Gently fold ingredients until just blended.
02 - To measure coconut oil correctly, portion it while solid, then melt before adding.
03 - Muffins can be frozen once completely cooled. Store in an airtight bag and reheat in the microwave for 15 to 30 seconds.
04 - Whole wheat pastry flour can be replaced with all-purpose flour if desired.
