How To MakeDiet Type: Classic
Shopping List
- 1 cup all purpose flour (or gluten-free blend)
- 50 grams butter, softened (dairy or non-dairy)
- 33333333/100000000 mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup cane sugar
- 1 whole egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 340°F. Prepare a mini muffin tin with liners, or use a silicon tin (we like this one).
- Step 2: Use a standing mixer or hand mixer to cream together the butter and sugar on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the butter mixture is pale yellow and fluffy. Next, add in all of the remaining ingredients, except the chocolate chips. Blend by hand or with the mixer until just combined. Avoid over-blending the batter here. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Step 3: Pour the batter into the prepared mini muffin pan. Fill each tin to about 2/3 of the way full, to avoid spilling as it bakes.
- Step 4: Bake the scuffins for 22 to 25 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack to cool before handling.
- Serve: These scuffins make the perfect snack or tasty treat. Leftovers freeze well.
Recipe Notes
Plant-Based Option: Substitute the eggs with 5 tablespoons of flax meal + 2 tablespoons cold water. Stir together the flax meal and water in a small bowl. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes to thicken. This will act as the egg replacer. Grain-Free Option: Substitute the flour with 1 cup of Paleo All Purpose Flour Blend.
