Recipe tips to make the perfect Double chocolate muffins

  • Mix the dry ingredients (except the chocolate chips) in a large bowl. You don’t need to sift the flour and sugar, mix all the ingredients with a large spoon to ensure that the baking soda and baking powder are disbursed properly. 
  • Use a measuring cup to measure and mix the wet ingredients. 
  • Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix properly till no dry patches remain (without overmixing). Now fold in the chocolate chips. 
  • You can use cupcake liners to line the muffin pans. If you are using liners, you do not have to grease the pan. Otherwise, properly grease the pan with butter or oil. 
  • Once the muffins come out of the oven, rest them for 3-5 minutes in the pan before cooking off on a wire rack. Ensure that they are completely cool before storing them in an airtight container.
  • Double chocolate chip muffins will last at room temperature for 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. 

FAQs- Double chocolate chip muffins

For this recipe, I have made egg-free double chocolate chip muffins but you can certainly make this recipe vegan. Substitute regular milk for any nut-based or oat milk.  I have not tried it personally for this recipe, but I am confident in my experience that it will work.  For a vegan version also ensure that your chocolate chips are dairy-free.

I do not bake gluten-free baked goods, so I cannot comment on if replacing gluten-free flour will work for this recipe.  But I have heard others get good recipe results by replacing all-purpose flour with 1:1 gluten-free baking flour.  So try it!

Yes absolutely.  Walnuts and chocolate are a great combination and you can make chocolate walnut muffins by replacing chocolate chips with chopped walnuts in the recipe.
