Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup cocoa powder

- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cups peanut butter chips
Wet Ingredients
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup yogurt
- ½ cup honey

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and line a muffin tin with 9 muffin liners.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
- Whisk the yogurt, honey, eggs, avocado oil, milk, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl.
- Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in the peanut butter chips.
- Use a large cookie scoop to divide the batter between the 9 lined muffin tin wells. Top with more peanut butter chips if you like.

- Cool the muffins for 10 minutes in the pan. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Storage
- Store these muffins at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- For longer storage, wrap the muffins in plastic wrap and freeze them for up to 2 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container or heavy-duty freezer bag.
- Bring the muffins to room temperature and enjoy.
- Measuring your flour by weight, if possible.
- If you don't have a food scale, loosely spoon your flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
- Never scoop the flour out directly with your measuring cup. It compacts, and you'll use too much.
- For the most tender muffins with the highest crowns, let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes before baking the muffins.
