Chocolate Chip Muffins

When you wake up to a blizzard raging outside in the middle of April, what better way to start the day than with a batch of homemade muffins fresh from the oven! The best part about this recipe is the crunchy, sugary topping, so be sure to eat the muffins while they are still warm... I bet you'll be going back for seconds!


Chocolate Chip Muffins
Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients
Muffins:
 2 cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
 1/2 cup white sugar
 3 tsp baking powder
 1/4 tsp salt
 3/4 cup milk (I use almond milk)
 1/3 cup vegetable oil
 1 egg, room temperature
 3/4 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips

Topping:
 3 Tbsp white sugar
 2 Tbsp brown sugar

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line muffin pan(s) with paper liners.
2. In medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; mix well.
3. In small bowl, combine milk, oil, and egg; blend well.
4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients all at once; stir just until dry ingredients are moistened (batter will be lumpy).
5. Fold in chocolate chips.
6. Divide batter among 12 muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full. (I use an ice cream scoop to make them even.)
7. Combine topping ingredients in small bowl; mix well. Sprinkle over tops of batter; pat down gently with fingers.
8. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool a few minutes in pan before removing to wire rack.
9. Serve warm. Enjoy!
