Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 375°F.
  • Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk the egg, milk, oil, and vanilla in a second bowl until smooth.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until no dry streaks remain; fold in the mini chocolate chips if using.
  • Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the tops spring back lightly and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer the mini muffins to a rack to finish cooling.
