Whole wheat chocolate chip muffins
Why I Love This Recipe
Having a picky toddler who seems to crave carbs inspired me to "trick" her into eating some whole wheat as a healthier alternative. You can make these without the chocolate chips as well.
Ingredients You'll Need
1/2 cup butter {or butter substitute, such as Smart Balance light buttery spread} softened at room temp.
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 cup skim or 2% milk
2 cups organic white whole wheat flour
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350
Beat eggs.
Add sugar, baking powder, salt & vanilla. Whisk. Add butter. Beat until fluffy.
Stir in milk.
Slowly fold in flour. Mix until thoroughly moistened.
Add chocolate chips. Mix.
Spoon batter into lined muffin pan, about 3/4 of the way filled. Cook at 350 for aprox 20-30 minutes, or until muffins are a golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Enjoy!
