Microwave Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
- Whole Wheat Flour – is a healthier alternative to refined flour. As it retains the bran and germ of the wheat kernel, offering more fiber, nutrients, and a nuttier flavor. It contributes to the nutritional profile of baked goods, providing a heartier texture.
- Oats Powder – Adds a wholesome element to muffins. Rich in fiber and various nutrients, it enhances the nutritional value of baked goods. Oats powder also contributes to a moist and tender texture in muffins and other treats.
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder – It imparts a deep, rich chocolate taste to recipes while allowing for control over the sweetness level. Provides a bold and authentic cocoa flavor.
- Baking Powder – is a leavening agent crucial for the rise and fluffiness of baked goods. It contains an acid and a base, creating carbon dioxide gas when mixed with wet ingredients. This gas expands during baking, resulting in a light and airy texture.
- Baking Soda – Also a leavening agent, reacts with curd to produce carbon dioxide gas. This reaction helps baked goods rise and contributes to a tender crumb. It’s often used in conjunction with baking powder.
- Brown Sugar – Adds moisture and a rich, caramel-like flavor to our muffins. It contributes to the tenderness and chewiness of muffins, creating a nuanced sweetness.
- Coconut Oil – Coconut oil adds a subtle tropical flavor and moisture to recipes. It’s a healthier alternative to some fats and brings a unique taste to muffins. Its solid form at room temperature helps create a desirable texture in muffins.
- Egg – Eggs act as binders and leavening agents in baking. They contribute to the structure and stability of muffins, providing moisture, richness, and a golden color. Eggs also enhance the overall texture of baked goods.
- Vanilla Essence – Adds a warm and sweet aroma to muffins. It enhances the flavor profile, balancing the sweetness and complementing the chocolatey notes in recipes.
- Curd – Contributes moisture, tenderness, and a slight tanginess to muffins. It also interacts with baking soda for leavening, ensuring a soft and fluffy texture.
- Dark Chocolate Chips – Adds intense chocolate flavor into the muffins. They provide bursts of richness and gooey pockets throughout the baked goods, creating a delightful contrast to the muffin’s texture.
Microwave Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
I love muffins and so does lil’M. It has become a tradition for me to send fresh fruit or fruit juice-infused muffins in lil’M’s snack box. Sometimes, I even make them fresh, minutes before lil’M comes home, to serve as an afterschool snack. However, today I decided to add a twist to the classic muffin recipe. Instead of using fruit juice or milk, I added curd, brown sugar, and coconut oil to make these double chocolate chip muffins extra delicious and soft.
To ensure these muffins turn out to be jumbo-sized, I used big silicone muffin liners and filled them up to the top. The result? These delightful, oversized treats that are perfect for those with a big appetite. But don’t worry if you don’t have big muffin liners. You can still use smaller ones and fill them up to around three-fourths of their capacity. This way, you’ll end up with more muffins to enjoy.
Now, it’s worth noting that microwave muffins are best enjoyed immediately. So, once you’ve whip up a batch of these scrumptious delights, make sure to relish them within 3-4 hours. Trust me, the decadent flavors of the double chocolate chip muffins, combined with the moist texture, will make every bite a truly irresistible treat.

Step-by-Step Recipe Of Microwave Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
Prepare Muffin Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, oats powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix well to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
- In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla essence until the mixture is smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, alternating with the curd, and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in half of the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Prepare Muffin Cups or Microwave-Safe Muffin Mould:
- Grease microwave-safe muffin cups or mould with a bit of coconut oil to prevent sticking.
NOTE: I generally use silicone muffin mould for microwave baking. It is convenient and easy to bake in silicone muffin mould.
Fill Muffin Cups:
- Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared muffin cups or mould, filling each about halfway to allow room for rising.
- Top the batter with remaining dark chocolate chips.
- Tap the mould gently on the kitchen counter.
Microwave:
- Microwave the muffins on high for 2-3 minutes, depending on the wattage of your microwave. Keep a close eye to prevent overcooking; the muffins should rise and set in the center.
Check for Doneness:
- Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs (not wet batter), the muffins are done.
Cool and Enjoy:
- Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before indulging. The chocolate chips will be deliciously gooey, and the muffins will have a moist, tender texture.
Serve:
- Serve warm and enjoy your quick and delightful Microwave Double Chocolate Chip Muffins!
Add love to make these double chocolate chip muffins taste 'Yummy'.
