How to Make the Best Chocolate Chip Muffins When You’re Craving Sweets for Breakfast

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Cal Poly chapter.

Craving a cupcake but upset that cupcakes aren’t considered a socially acceptable breakfast food? Trying to throw something together from ingredients you already have in your pantry? You’re in luck — look no further than these chocolate chip muffins.

Make a batch on your day off and store in an air-tight Tupperware, and you’ll have enough muffins to get you through the week.

#SpoonTip: As tempting as it may be, learn from my mistakes and maybe stick to one muffin per serving… but you do you.

    Spray or line muffin tins and fill halfway with batter. Bake at 425°F for about 10-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown (test with a toothpick before taking the muffins out of the oven).

    #SpoonTip: If you’re feeling mini muffins instead of normal size, watch the oven more closely, as baking time will be different.
