Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
½ cup fresh orange juice
2 ½ tablespoons fresh orange juice
½ cup ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons ricotta cheese
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup milk
½ cup white sugar
3 tablespoons finely grated orange zest
2 ½ tablespoons sour cream
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
Whisk eggs, 1/2 cup plus 2 1/2 tablespoons orange juice, 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons ricotta, vegetable oil, milk, sugar, orange zest, sour cream, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; pour in egg mixture and chocolate chips. Stir until flour is just moistened. Be sure not to overmix to avoid overly tough muffins.
