Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven at 425°F (218°C). Also, grease a 12 count muffin pan (you can use liners if you prefer).

  3. Add oil, agave syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, yogurt and mix well.
  4. Now add the salt, cinnamon and baking soda, and then the whole wheat flour and flax meal. Fold it all gently with the wet ingredients. Do not overmix.
  5. Add the mini chocolate chips and mix. Save some to top in the baking pan.
  6. Spoon the batter evenly into each muffin cup. Sprinkle some chocolate chips on the top.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for 7 minutes then reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue to bake 8-10 minutes until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
  8. Remove from muffin pan and let the muffins cool completely on a wire rack and enjoy! Store muffins in an airtight container.
