Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • Paper liners (optional, but recommended)

Ingredients
  

  • 125 gr oat flour (approx. 1¼ cup)(store bought or grind from gluten free oats)
  • 125 gr gluten free all purpose flour (approx. 1 cup)(or sub regular all purpose flour)
  • 180 gr coconut sugar (approx. 1 cup)(or sub light brown sugar or raw cane sugar)
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 250 ml almond milk (approx. 1 cup)(or sub other type of milk)
  • 85 ml avocado oil (approx. ⅓ cup)
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips (I prefer dark chocolate chips, but semi sweet chips work perfectly as well)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425F/ 215C and fill a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine all dry ingredients; oat flour, flour, sugar, baking soda and sea salt.
  • Stir in the milk, oil, apple cider vinegar and vanilla. With a wooden spatula combine it all but try not to over mix. 
  • Now add ¾ cup of chocolate chips to the batter and stir until just incorporated. Again, make sure not to over mix it to keep the batter as airy as possible.
  • Fill the muffin cups up ¾ of the way with batter and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
  • Bake the muffins on the middle rack of the preheated oven for 5 minutes before reducing the temperate to 350F/175C. Bake them for another 12-15 minutes or until the muffins are slightly domed and a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Take the muffins out of the oven and let them cool off slightly before taking them out of the tin. Now let them cool off on a cooling rack (just a bit... at least long enough to not burn your tongue on the melted chocolate!).
