Ingredients
  • 3 cup Plain flour
  • 3 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup Melted Margarine (Lactose free) (Brand used - Nuttellex)
  • 1/3 cup Flavorless oil (I prefer sunflower or vegetable oil)
  • 1 cup Caster sugar
  • 2 ROOM TEMP Eggs
  • 1 cup ROOM TEMP Milk (lactose free) (Brand used - Liddells Full Cream)
  • 1/3 cup ROOM TEMP Greek Yoghurt (lactose free) (Brand used - Farmers Union)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 & 1/2 cup Chocolate chips (lactose free) (Brand used - Sweet Williams)
  • Raw sugar for sprinkling
  • Muffin tin
  • Muffin liners
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 220°c (425F) and line a muffin tin with liners. This recipe makes 6 jumbo muffins or 12 standard sized muffins. The eggs, milk and plain yoghurt should be at room temperature before you begin.
  2. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg into a large bowl.
  3. In another bowl add in the melted margarine, oil, eggs and sugar. Whisk well.
  4. Add in the sour cream, milk and vanilla and mix.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mix. Gently fold them together. Try not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin. Fill them either 3/4 or all the way to the top if you want a nice big top.
  8. Grab the raw sugar. Sprinkle the sugar over the top of the muffins. This gives the top a nice little crunch.
  9. Bake for 5 minutes. Then lower the temperature to 175°c (350F) and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes until lovely and golden. Jumbo muffins may need a few more minutes until cooked fully.
  10. Cool down for several minutes and then transfer them onto a cooling rack to cool down completely.
  11. Congratulations you have made delicious chocolate chip muffins.
  12. Serve, devour and enjoy.
