A hearty, energy-dense muffin that combines whole-grain oats with cocoa notes and honey sweetness—structured for sustained energy and a moist, tender crumb.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 2 large eggs, whisked
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
  • Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a bowl, combine:
    • old fashioned oats
    • Flour
    • Baking powder
    • Baking soda
    • Cinnamon
    • Salt

3. Mix Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, whisk:
    • Honey
    • Buttermilk
    • Oil
    • Eggs

4. Combine Batter

  • Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients
  • Stir until just combined
  • Fold in 1/2 cup chocolate chips

5. Fill & Top

  • Fill muffin cups 3/4 full
  • Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top

6. Bake

  • Bake:
    • 20–22 minutes (standard muffins)
    • 16–18 minutes (mini muffins)
  • Muffins are done when a toothpick comes out clean

7. Cool & Serve

  • Cool briefly in pan, then transfer to a rack
  • Serve warm or at room temperature

Notes

  • Let batter rest (5–10 min): Hydrates old fashioned oats for better texture
  • Don’t overmix: Prevents toughness
  • Use room temp eggs: Ensures even emulsification
