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!

Marvelous Muffins
We always have flavored or 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.

Looking at all of these reviews I will be making these today. Can’t wait! 😃
I’m one of those annoying people that changed it, but they turned out great without choc chips, half the oil, only 2 tbsp sweetener, and with a grated apple. Needed something for my 18 month old with tummy troubles. Yogurt, oats, and apple was a perfect combination, and she loved them! Ate two for lunch. Sometime I’ll make them as written because they sound delicious, but for now thank you for providing a recipe that’s helping us through some tough tummy times!
Hi Bree! I love hearing this and that you adapted them to best satisfy your little one! Sounds like they turned out great. I hope y’all continue to enjoy!
Can you make this with regular flour? Would they turn out similar?
Hi, Shelby! It should turn out great! Whole wheat just makes for a little more dense and hearty muffin. All-purpose flour will work just fine and still taste delicious! Hope this helps!
I subbed applesauce for the oil and honey for the sugar and both worked well. I had to cook them about 22 minutes.
I also omitted the streusel topping.
Overall pretty good, but I think the cinnamon was unnecessary.
These muffins are delicious! To trim the carbs I omitted the steusel topping and used half Swerve brown sugar, half regular brown sugar. Still very decadent
Hi, Donna! I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed them!
These muffins were fantastic. They were so yummy and moist and easy to make. Will definitely make again.
Hi, Cindy! I’m so happy you enjoyed them!
Is it possible to add in bananas?
Hi Joni! Absolutely, but I would recommend replacing half or all of the yogurt with measured mashed banana instead of adding it in addition to the other ingredients. I hope this helps and that you enjoy!
What is the carb count on this recipe? Sounds so good.

This recipe rocks! Made this in a baking dish bc I was lazy and it’s like a ridiculously delicious coffee cake (about doubled the cooking time). I also added coconut flakes & subbed avocado oil. Will definitely make this again to share with guests.
Hi, Amanda! I love it when a lazy hack works like that! I’m so happy you enjoyed it.
The chocolate chip muffins were fantastic! This is the last muffin recipe I will ever use. It was simple, fast and the muffins were perfect.
My husband is diabetic, so I used the Splenda brand brown sugar. It worked very well. I also didn’t have any plain Greek yogurt so I substituted vanilla Greek yogurt. Neither modification seemed to affect the recipe.
I have ideas for future batches such as chopped nuts, blueberries and chopped apples.
Hi, Martha! Thank you so much for sharing! I am so glad you enjoyed them!
thank you for the delicious looking recipe! will using all purpose flour work the same?
Hi, Judith! Yes! The muffins might be a little lighter as whole wheat can be dense, but they’ll still be great.
