I was craving chocolate (big time!) a few days ago and not a square of chocolate was to be found in the fridge. 😦

I decided to browse through my cookbook: Not Just for Vegetarians and made these: Chocolate Oatmeal Muffins  as a almost guilt-free chocolate “fix” instead of heading to the store. I’m glad that I did.

Yummy, oh so moist and chocolatety too.

And not too bad when it comes to healthier ingredients. A better choice than a chocolate bar! 😉

I keep sugar to a minimum in all my baking and used about a 1/2 cup for these. You might want to add a bit more, to taste if you like sweeter dessert muffins.

The oatmeal keeps them nice and moist, even the next day.

I made BIG muffins, that’s why there’s only 6 in the photo above. Eight regular muffins can easily be made from one batch of batter.

Hope you enjoy these muffins too and do let me know if  you try them. 🙂
