Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for better texture.
- Soaking oats helps soften them and prevents dense muffins.
- For healthier muffins, reduce sugar or use a sugar substitute.
