Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar, unsweetened applesauce, non-fat Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, skim milk, and the egg white. Mix until smooth.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 5
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a bun comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let the buns cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
