Cuisine: Breakfast
Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 2 cups Kodiak Cakes mix
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Kodiak Cakes mix, creating a well in the center for wet ingredients.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together milk, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry Kodiak Cakes mix, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are acceptable.
- If using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter gently, distributing evenly throughout the mixture.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full to allow room for rising.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
Tips
- Don't overmix the batter! Stirring just until ingredients are combined ensures tender, fluffy muffins.
- For extra moisture, make sure your Greek yogurt and eggs are at room temperature before mixing.
- Customize your muffins by adding different mix-ins like blueberries, nuts, or different flavored chocolate chips.
- Use a light hand when folding in additional ingredients to maintain the muffins' delicate texture.
- Check doneness with the toothpick method - it should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let muffins cool slightly in the pan before transferring to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- For meal prep, these muffins freeze beautifully for up to a month - just wrap individually and thaw as needed.
