Ingredients
 
 

  • 1/2 cup milk dairy or dairy-free milk works
  • 3/4 cups full-fat sour cream room temperature
  • 2/3 cups oil
  • 3/4 cups light brown sugar* or dark brown sugar
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cups mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉/218℃. Line your muffin tin with 12 liners and set aside. If you need a recommendation, this is my favourite tin.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, add in flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, cornstarch, baking powder, and baking soda. Using a spatula, mix until just completely combined.
    1 tsp cinnamon, 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt
  • In a large bowl add eggs, milk, vanilla, brown sugar, oil, and sour cream. Whisk until combined.
    1/2 cup milk, 3/4 cups full-fat sour cream, 2/3 cups oil, 3/4 cups light brown sugar*, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp vanilla
  • Add the dry into the wet and using a spatula, gently fold until a soft batter forms.
  • Mix in the mini chocolate chips until just combined. Do not over-mix!
    3/4 cups mini chocolate chips
  • Evenly divide the batter between 12 liners. Using a cookie scooper helps big time to minimize the mess. Sprinkle extra mini chocolate chips on top (optional).
  • Bake the muffins at 425℉/218℃ for 5 minutes and then 375°F for 14-18 minutes. The muffins are ready when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • These muffins stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 3 days, and in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week!

Notes

Light brown sugar - Instead of using the full 3/4 cups light brown sugar, you can substitute with 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup light brown sugar.
