Step‑by‑Step Instructions

  3. In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, neutral oil or melted butter, large eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips if desired.
  5. Allow the batter to rest for about 5 to 10 minutes.
  6. Spoon the muffin batter into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
