Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cups buttermilk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cups chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups optional: chopped walnuts or pecans
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold them together using a spatula. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 5
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and, if desired, the chopped nuts until evenly distributed.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Pookie Muffins with a cup of coffee or tea!
