Equipment

  • Kitchen Scale (optional)
  • Muffin Tin
  • Fine-Mesh Sieve

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 240 grams
  • ½ cup almond flour 48 grams
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder 14 grams
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda 6 grams
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • cups semisweet chocolate chips 255 grams, divided
  • ½ cup unsalted butter 113 grams, melted and cooled (1 stick)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar 100 grams
  • ½ cup brown sugar 107 grams
  • 2 large eggs 100 grams
  • 1 cup buttermilk 227 grams
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract 12 grams

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F or 180°C. Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add chocolate all but 3 tablespoons of the chips. Set aside.
    2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup almond flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt, 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • In another medium-sized bowl, whisk the butter, both the sugars, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract together until well combined.
    ½ cup unsalted butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup brown sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 cup buttermilk, 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • Slowly start adding the dry mix to the wet mix in batches and mix until everything is combined well.
  • Pour the batter into the lined muffin trays, filling ⅔ full. Sprinkle the remaining 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips on top of the muffins, and bake them for 15-18 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

  • Make sure to save about 3 tablespoons of chocolate chips for topping your muffins. 
  • Sift all your dry ingredients, and then add the chocolate chips last. 
  • Check your muffins after they have cooked for 15 minutes. Over-baking will cause them to dry out.
Storage: Store chocolate chip muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
