Chocolate-Ricotta Muffins image

A friend of mine who owns a bed and breakfast gave me this recipe, and these chocolate-ricotta cheese muffins are fantastic. Great for breakfast, a snack, and also great in lunch boxes.

Time 35m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 11

nonstick cooking spray with flour
2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 ⅓ cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 18 cups of a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray that contains flour.
  • Mix flour, sugar, chocolate chips, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Place ricotta cheese in a bowl and add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Whisk in milk and vanilla extract until blended.
  • Fold cheese mixture and canola oil into flour mixture until just blended. Spoon batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Remove muffins from the pan immediately and let cool on a wire rack.
