Chocolate and Peanut Butter Muffins

Chocolate and peanut butter is a match made in heaven in these muffins! They are the perfect blend of the rich cocoa and nutty peanut butter flavors. Even though they have bold flavors, the muffins are light and fluffy for a great, healthy breakfast, snack or dessert!

The other day Mom was wanting some muffins for breakfast the following morning, and like usual I jumped to make some for her! They problem was that there are so many flavor combos to chose from! How do you chose between apple and cinnamon, lemon and blueberry, oatmeal raisin, etc. ? My family loves chocolate  no matter what, and peanut butter is a great partner for it, so I went with that and the result was pretty delicious , if I do say so myself!

So, let's get on with the recipe, shall we?

Ingredients:
1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Coconut Oil
1/2 cup Honey
1 Egg
1/2 cup Unsweetened Greek Yogurt
1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla
1/3 cup Cocoa Powder
1/3 cup PB2 ( You can also just use regular peanut butter and use a little less coconut oil.)

Preheat your oven to 400 F. Beat together the honey and coconut oil. You want the oil to be soft but not liquid. Add the egg and beat until well combined. Next, add the yogurt, almond milk, vanilla and flours. Mix until combined. Add in the baking powder, salt, and baking soda along with the cocoa powder and PB2(or regular peanut butter if that is what you're using). Mix this together until the mixture is lump free and smooth.  Grease or line a muffin tin and spoon in the batter. I filled mine about 3/4 of the way full. This is enough for 12 muffins. Bake for 15 mins. or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the muffin comes out clean. Let them cool in the pan for 10 mins. and then remove them and let them completely cool on a wire rack.

These muffins smell so good while baking and they taste just as delicious! Enjoy them for breakfast with some fresh fruit, as a snack or even a dessert! They are the perfect thing to grab for a quick bite to eat, or enjoying with a nice cup of coffee!

You can also make a pile of mini muffins like I did here! They are perfect for little hands and they're super cute!
