A friend of mine who owns a bed and breakfast gave me this recipe, and these chocolate-ricotta cheese muffins are fantastic. Great for breakfast, a snack, and also great in lunch boxes.
Ingredients
- nonstick cooking spray with flour
- 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white sugar
- ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/3 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup canola oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 18 cups of a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray that contains flour.
Step 2
Mix flour, sugar, chocolate chips, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
Step 3
Place ricotta cheese in a bowl and add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Whisk in milk and vanilla extract until blended.
Step 4
Fold cheese mixture and canola oil into flour mixture until just blended. Spoon batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Remove muffins from the pan immediately and let cool on a wire rack.
