Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and lightly spray a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg lightly, then add the milk, maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently just until no large streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Using a small spoon or a cookie scoop, fill each cavity of the prepared mini muffin tin about 3/4 full with batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then gently remove them and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature with additional maple syrup for dipping, if desired.
