Add oil, vanilla extract and mix gently. Finally add chocolate chips, mix again and spoon into prepared muffin cups and bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool slightly, peel the liner and enjoy.
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container and use within a day or two for best taste.
Yielded 12 regular sized muffins.
Notes:
For a vegan version, or if you do not have yogurt on hand you can substitute it with half a cup of mashed ripe banana (approx 1 large banana)
The entire quantity of flour in this recipe can be substituted for 2 cups of spelt flour. It works well with spelt flour too. If you use spelt flour just make sure not to overmix the ingredients and just as soon as the ingredients are mixed spoon them into the pre lined muffin cups.
