These chocolate chip mini muffins are so soft and chewy it’s almost like eating chocolate chip cookies in the form of a muffin.
Chocolate chip cookies > muffins.
Actually if we’re being honest, chocolate chip cookies > pretty much everything else.
Hope you enjoyed your math lesson for the day.
Flourless Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins
- 1 cup almond meal (100g)
- 2 tbsp ground flaxmeal
- scant 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 2-3 tbsp mini chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil
- 2 tsp white or apple cider vinegar
Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins: Preheat oven to 280F and grease a mini muffin tin, then set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together all liquid ingredients. Pour wet into dry and stir to form a dough, then scoop into 8 or 9 mini muffin cups. Place in the oven and immediately increase temperature to 325F. Bake 22 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool at least 15 minutes before removing from the muffin cups.

Tee hee! Top muffin has such a cute little smile–makes this look like a muffin ‘snowman!’
I have made several of your recipes and my BF hasn’t been a fan of anything i’ve made. Of course i’ve loved everything. But this one was a winner! The man who thinks veggies are only are peas and broccoli loves these little bites. I had to actually hide them. 🙂
Loved these so much! Whipped them up twice already as they’re so quick and easy to make. You need to make more recipes like this that a paleo and grain free!
I HAVE TO TRY THESE! I’ve been craving a chocolate chip muffin and these look so simple and delicious!
Anything that has chocolate in it is a sure bet for me, thanks for this “mini” recipe!
Your page makes me want to eat chocolate.. ALL DAY 🙂 🙂 & also makes me feel like its perfectly ok to do so lol! Love it .
need to try these!! am a chocolate chip cookie lover and (not that I’m doubting your ability to create something like this ;)) but it is even possible to capture the elements of a ccc in a muffin?? 🙂 guess I shall find out 😉 they look amazing!!!
Hi Katie! These little muffins look adorable and delicious! I just made almond milk and have the almond meal leftover in the freezer! One question.. If I do not have maple syrup, would agave syrup possibly work as a substitute? Thanks for the recipe as always!
Yes that would be fine.
Hi Katie, I just made these and want to let you know they are awesome! They are actually very similar to Elana Amsterdam’s Chocolate Chip Scones in her Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook. The main difference is that hers have eggs (and she uses a different fat and sweetener, but the ratios in her recipe and yours are almost exactly the same :). I make them for my boys for breakfast on a weekly basis because we love them, so I was excited to try your vegan version and I have to say (no offense to Elana!) but I like them better without the eggs, so thank you so much for the recipe! I will be making this often. Also, just to let you know, it works very well to use a cookie scoop and cook these on a cookie sheet like cookies, as well as in mini muffin form.
Such a great healthy option!
My favorite vegan/gluten free meal would have to be my baked spicy tofu over sticky rice with a coconut milk sauce!
Chocolate chip mini muffins are cooooool!! Try it. 🙂
This is Yummy!woooohooo!
I subbed half of the almond flour with a mixture of sorghum and chickpea flour. For everything else, I made it exactly as stated. I made “regular” sized muffins and it made 7. Delicious!! Thank you, Katie.
Just made these tonight and they were awesome! My husband also gave them a thumbs up! Thanks for the great recipe!
What is almond meal?
