Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Muffins
Make a double batch of these soft, bakery style chocolate chip muffins and have breakfast for the week. They’re delicious as an afternoon snack, too!
Hey y’all! Kelley from the Grant life here again to share another easy recipe. My kids went back to school this week and things have been a little hectic. We are still on summer schedules in the Grant house. We are still trying to figure out how to get dressed, eat breakfast, get out the door AND be on time to school. Anyone else have that same problem?? I bet right around Christmas break we will get into our back to school groove.
My easy solution is to make one portable breakfast at the beginning of the week. The drive from the house to school is the perfect time for the kids to get a quick breakfast in and still be on time. These bakery style chocolate chip muffins are the perfect solution for a quick, easy and delicious breakfast. I can’t guarantee your kids will be on time to school, but they will be well fed.
Another plus to these chocolate chip muffins is that your kiddos can help you make them. They are super easy to toss together and who can resist sneaking a chocolate chip taste test while baking? I can’t!
Tips for Making Perfect Chocolate Chip Muffins
Start by preheating your oven and prepping a 12-count muffin pan (aff). Preheating the oven ensures even cooking time. Prep the muffin pan in one of two ways:
- Line the cups with paper liners.
- Grease the muffins cups generously with nonstick cooking spray.
My preferred way is to grease the pan so I don’t have to worry about the liners sticking to the muffins, and they look nice and smooth all the way around.
Next you will combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, and then fold in the chocolate chips. Add the chips last helps to keep them from getting clumped together or falling to the bottom of the muffins. The batter is then distributed evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
A little secret tip for portioning muffins – use an ice cream scoop! This will help to make sure each muffin is the same size to ensure even cooking, plus, and one ice cream scoop will fill the muffin cups about 2/3 of the way, which is exactly what you want.
The crumb topping gives these beautiful chocolate chips muffins that bakery style feel and takes them way over the top. Enjoy!
