Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently into the batter.
  6. Divide the muffin batter evenly among the lined muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18–20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Your kitchen will smell amazing.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
