These Bakery Style, big and fluffy Chocolate Chip Muffins deserve a permanent spot in your recipe book! They’re easy to make and perfectly moist.
I have so many favorite muffin recipes on my site ranging from classics like Banana Bread Muffins and Blueberry Muffins, to Pumpkin and Snickerdoodle Muffins. I love how well they freeze for lunches or after-school snacks.
These Chocolate Chip Muffins are truly everything you’d hope for; moist and fluffy in the center with a slight crisp, golden muffin top. They have just the right balance of sweetness to leave you feeling satisfied.
How to make Chocolate Chip Muffins:
- Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips.
- In separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and gently fold the mixture together just until combined. Be careful not to over-mix the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups–they will be full to the top. Bake at 425° F for 5 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375° F and continue baking for 12-15 more minutes. The initial hot temperature will help you get a big and tall muffin top, like you’d find at a bakery!
Storing Instructions:
Store the muffins in a ziplock bag or a container with a lid, with a paper towel underneath and on top of them to keep them from getting soggy.
Freezing Instructions:
Allow to cool completely, place in a freezer-safe ziplock bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw on your counter or warm for a few seconds in the microwave.
