Maple Oat Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins recipe

Here’s my recipe for quick, easy, homemade maple oatmeal mini muffins. They’re great to bring to brunch, and not too sweet. I wanted to try to make these with whole wheat flour, but was out when I went to make them. I’ll definitely try it next time! If you’d like to sweeten them up a bit, you can add more brown sugar to the recipe.

Maple Oat Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins recipe

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup flour
• 1/2 cup quick oats
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup packed brown sugar (if you’d like them sweeter, you could try more)
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1/8 cup canola oil
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
• A little extra flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the sprinkled tops

Instructions:

Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl. (Flour, quick oats, baking powder, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt). In a separate bowl, mix together the liquid ingredients (milk, egg, canola oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract). Mix in 1/4 cup chocolate chips (or more! No judgements!).

Spray a mini muffin tin, and fill cups to the top with mixture. In a small bowl, whisk together some flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon, and sprinkle it over the tops of the muffins.

Bake at 375 degrees for 16 minutes, or until a knife inserted comes out clean.
