Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
  • 4 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 4 large Large eggs
  • 1 cup Whole milk or 2% milk
  • 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
  • 4 tbl Unsalted butter
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425ºF (220ºC) to help the muffins rise nicely.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Stir until evenly mixed.
  • In a larger bowl, combine the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, then add 1 ½ cups of chocolate chips and stir until just combined.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 15 minutes.

Baking

  • Line a muffin pan with 6 liners and fill each liner with 6-8 heaping tablespoons of batter. Top with remaining chocolate chips.
  • Bake for 7 minutes at 425ºF, then reduce the temperature to 350ºF (175ºC) and continue baking for 12-16 minutes.
  • Check for doneness with a toothpick; if it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter, and do not overmix to keep muffins fluffy.
  • These muffins freeze well for a quick snack later.
  • Experiment with different flavors or mix-ins like nuts or dried fruits.
