- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add-ins
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners to prepare for baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to ensure a soft muffin texture.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter, distributing the sweetness in every bite.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full for the perfect rise.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins turn golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack or serving them warm.
Notes
- Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top of the batter before baking for a bakery-style look and extra chocolatey bites.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the muffins tender and fluffy.
