❤️About This Recipe
- It requires 10 ingredients only.
- This muffins batter comes together in 15 minutes only.
- It has soft, moist and bread-like texture the same as you get in egg version.
- It has a cinnamon-sugar topping. While muffins are fresh, the topping stays crispy. And it gets soft the second day but still delicious. (Not the cinnamon fan, skip the topping).
- This is a very versatile muffin batter. Skip chocolate chips and topping, you will have the nice vanilla-flavored batter ready. Customize however you like (a few ideas, add dried fruits, nuts, berries, raisins, dates)
🧾Ingredient Notes
You will need only 10 ingredients to make eggless chocolate chip muffins. Here is the pic, I am sure you’ll have everything in your pantry.
Milk+Vinegar: here I have combined both to make homemade buttermilk. If you have store-bought buttermilk ready in your fridge then use that. Make sure milk or buttermilk is at room temperature.
Oil: I recommend using flavorless oil like corn, canola, vegetable, safflower, etc.
Chocolate chips: I have used milk chocolate chips. You can use white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peanut butter chips. If you like less sweet then use dark chocolate chips.

Made the muffins accorrding to the recipe, they turned out just fine.
They have more of a dense texture but thats to be expected when cooking without egg.
I would make them again.
