Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cups creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cups honey
- 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.25 cups mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or coat with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the rolled oats and mini chocolate chips (if using) with a spatula.
Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Good and Good for You Peanut Butter Muffins as a delicious and wholesome snack or breakfast!
