A Muffin Obsession

My name is Maegan, and I’m obsessed with muffins! Banana muffins, chocolate chip muffins, blueberry muffins. ALL THE MUFFINS! They’re easy to bake, easy to serve, easy to eat and the varieties are endless. I can pretty much just open the fridge and pantry to find a few handy ingredients that would make tasty muffins in no time. And these Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Green Yogurt Muffins are definitely worth obsessing over. They’re definitely one of my favorite muffin recipes. And they’re healthy-ish. That’s hard to beat!

We always have plain Greek yogurt on hand and I love baking with it because it adds great moisture and nutrition. I frequently use it in place of sour cream, mayonnaise, buttermilk and heavy cream in some recipes and you can hardly tell the difference. Today, I’m sharing a marvelous muffin that’s made healthier with whole wheat flour, oats, and a big cup full of Greek yogurt. They’ve got chocolate in them which makes them taste way more indulgent than they really are! I opt for semi-sweet chocolate, but dark chocolate chips would also be delicious.

How to Make Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Greek Yogurt Muffins

First, preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside. Then, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and Greek yogurt. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until the mixture is well combined. Fold in 1 cup chocolate chips.

Divide batter evenly among greased muffin tins, filling each one almost full. In a small bowl, stir together the struesel ingredients with a fork until well coated in the oil.

Place a heaping tablespoon of streusel over the batter in the muffin cups.

Bake for 15-18 minutes or until muffins start to turn golden brown and streusel is crisp. Let muffins cool in pan for 5-10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy.

      Hi Melissa! I don’t provide nutritional information at this time because everyone uses different brands of ingredients which often have differing nutritional values. I would recommend plugging the ingredients you use into a free online nutrition calculator like: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/calculator Hope this helps!

      Hi Sarah! I would recommend letting them cool and then storing them in the refrigerator until you are ready to give them to your friends. They’ll taste best within 2-3 days. Enjoy!

    Hi, can I bake this in a 9×5 inch pan, instead of muffins? If so, how long would I need to bake it for?

    Reply
    • The BakerMama says

      June 15, 2020 at 6:25 pm

      Hi Auj! Yes, you can definitely bake the recipe as a loaf. I would give it about 40-45 minutes to bake all the way through. If the top looks done, but the center is not baked all the way through, just tint it with foil and let it continue to bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Enjoy!

    I found this recipe 2 weeks ago. Since then, I’ve shared it with three people and have made 3 batches! And I live alone. 🙂
    Every “healthy” muffin recipe I’ve tried (and I’ve tried a lot) has always been underwhelming, at best. These are crazy-delicious. The first time, I made them as-is, but I left off the streusel topping (I was being lazy) and they were incredible. The second time, I made them with GF flour since I’ve been trying to cut back my gluten, and I also blended half of the oatmeal into flour. These were also fabulous. The yogurt in them is a game-changer, but the chocolate doesn’t hurt either. 🙂 I also love that it’s a great, basic recipe. You could switch up the chocolate chips and mix in anything you’d normally put in your oatmeal. At 2 teaspoons of sugar per muffin, you can’t go wrong. Try this recipe, it will not disappoint!

    I made 12 with the topping and 6 without. The kids liked them. I liked them too, but found them a bit heavy. My only change was to use quick oats in the batter rather than than the old fashioned oats. I used the old fashioned oats for the topping though.

      Hi Denise! Yes, you can definitely substitute honey for the brown sugar in the recipe. I would recommend 1/3 cup honey for the 1/2 cup brown sugar the recipe calls for. For the streusel, I would recommend 3 tablespoons honey for the 1/3 cup brown sugar it calls for. Hope this helps! Enjoy!

    Hello,

    Can maple syrup be substituted for the brown sugar (in the muffins, not the streusel)? I got the idea from your healthy blueberry breakfast cupcakes. Thank you for the help! 🙂

    Reply
    • The BakerMama says

      October 12, 2021 at 10:47 pm

      Hi Ace! Yes, I would suggest you replace the 1/2 cup brown sugar called for in the recipe with just 1/3 cup maple syrup. There’s so much going on in the recipe already that the change in texture won’t be that noticeable. I would recommend still using brown sugar in the streusel. Hope this helps. Enjoy!

      Hi GG! Yes, you can replace the 3/4 cup oats with 3/4 cup whole wheat, all-purpose or oat flour. The overall texture of the muffins will be lighter, but they should still bake up great. Enjoy!

    This recipe, as written, is more of a dessert as opposed to breakfast. The muffins are too sweet and have WAY too much chocolate. And I love chocolate. If I make again, I would reduce the chocolate by half and eliminate the streusel topping. It’s really not needed. Maybe just a sprinkle of turbinado sugar for sweetness and crunch. Otherwise, a unique recipe which I enjoyed as an after dinner treat!

    These turned out delicious. I used regular unsweetened Greek yogurt and half the recommended chocolate chips in this recipe, skipped the strudel and just added some sugar in the raw sprinkled on top to lessen the sugar in the overall recipe. Thanks so much for an awesome muffin recipe, I already ate 2!
