Healthy chocolate chip muffins

Step 1

Preheat oven to Line a muffin tin with muffin liners and spray with cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine oats and milk and let those soak while you prepare the rest of the recipe, to soften the oats.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg and brown sugar until smooth and caramel colored.

Step 4

Add vanilla and butter and whisk to combine. You may have small pieces of butter in the mixture, which is totally fine. (See notes.)

Step 5

Add flour, oat-milk mixture, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Stir until well combined but don’t over mix.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 7

Distribute the batter between the muffin tins - they will be about 2/3rds full.

Step 8

Bake for 15-18 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
