Notes
- You want to make sure that the steel-cut oats are cooked fully prior to using them in the chocolate muffins. You want most of the liquid to be absorbed.
- The muffins are soft but do firm up a bit in the fridge. Texture-wise, they're gooey and chewy thanks to the steel-cut oats and chocolate chips.
- Make sure to bake the gooey muffins in silicone muffin cups as they stick to paper cups.
- Do not freeze the muffins as they'll lose their double chocolate texture!
- If you're celiac, double check that your baking powder is completely gluten-free.
- Grab all the gluten-free pantry staples you need.
