Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Muffins

Ingredients:

- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk (skim or 2%)
- 2/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

- 2/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin tins by greasing or lining with muffin papers.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, peanut butter, oil, and vanilla.

Stir the moist ingredients into the dry ingredients, just until moistened. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Fill prepared muffin tins two-thirds full. For miniature muffins, bake for 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. For regular-sized muffins, bake for 22-25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
