  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 and ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ¾ cup milk
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 cup diced fresh strawberries
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and large egg until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  4. Prep Strawberries: Toss the diced fresh strawberries with a teaspoon of flour to prevent them from sinking during baking. Then add the strawberries and chocolate chips to the dry ingredients, mixing gently to distribute evenly.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently fold together until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the muffins tender.
  6. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
  7. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs attached.
  8. Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, preserving their texture.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain tender and fluffy muffins.
  • For a deeper chocolate flavor, add a pinch of espresso powder to the dry ingredients.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to keep them fresh.
