Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.
- Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and granulated sugar, mixing until smooth and creamy.
- Step 3: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla powder until fully incorporated.
- Step 4: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Step 5: Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Step 6: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups and bake for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before serving.
Notes
- For optimal freshness, store the Peanut Butter Muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate them for up to a week.
- To enjoy these muffins warm, reheat them in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, which will help to revive their moist texture and melt the chocolate chips slightly.
- Serve these delightful muffins with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness that complements the peanut butter flavor beautifully.
- For best results, make sure not to overmix the batter when combining the wet and dry ingredients, as this keeps your muffins tender and fluffy!
