Indulgent Avocado Chocolate Muffins: A Healthy Twist on a Classic

Delicious Avocado Chocolate Muffins

Today, I’m excited to share a unique recipe for avocado chocolate muffins that are not only delicious but also healthy. Avocados are known for their creamy texture and nutrient-rich profile, making them a perfect addition to these indulgent treats. These muffins are great for breakfast, snack time, or even dessert!

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe avocados (mashed)
• 150g coconut sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 30g cocoa powder
• 150g whole wheat flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 120ml almond milk

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• muffin tin
• whisk
• spatula

To start, preheat your oven to 180°C and line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed avocados and coconut sugar until well mixed. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.

In a separate bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the avocado mixture, alternating with the almond milk. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 600g, with 12 servings. Each serving weighs around 50g, with an approximate calorie count of 150 per muffin.

One clever tip for these avocado chocolate muffins is to add a handful of chocolate chips to the batter for an extra indulgent touch. The melty, gooey chocolate pairs perfectly with the creamy avocado texture!

I hope you give these avocado chocolate muffins a try and enjoy them as much as I do. Feel free to get creative with the recipe and make it your own by adding nuts, seeds, or your favorite toppings. Happy baking!
