Instructions

Prepare to bake

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with butter.

Mix dry ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Pro tip: Ensure there are no lumps in the flour mixture.

Combine wet ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Pro tip: Make sure the butter is cool to avoid cooking the eggs.

Add milk

Gradually add the milk to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined.

Pro tip: Use room temperature milk to prevent the butter from solidifying.

Combine wet and dry ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; the batter should be lumpy.

Pro tip: Avoid overmixing to keep muffins tender.

Fold in chocolate chips

Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring even distribution.

Pro tip: Reserve a few chocolate chips to sprinkle on top before baking.

Fill muffin cups

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Pro tip: Use an ice cream scoop for uniform muffin sizes.

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.

Pro tip: Rotate the muffin tin halfway through for even baking.

Cool muffins

Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
