How to Make Low Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt, ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce, ¼ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy), ½ cup brown sugar (or sweetener of choice), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Fold in 1 cup chocolate chips.
  5. Fill the muffin liners about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
