How to Make Double Chocolate Muffins Healthy

  • These Healthy Fudgy Double Chocolate Muffins have intense chocolate flavor.  By using applesauce and olive oil, these muffins stay super moist and don’t fall apart!
  • No banana is involved, like these. However, you could substitute banana or Greek Yogurt for the applesauce as well!
  • You could change up the all-purpose flour
    . We used whole wheat flour
    , but other flour options you can use is gluten-free flour 1 for 1
    .
  • I love using olive oil, but I also like to use avocado
    and canola
    oil.  You can also use melted coconut oil
    or butter.  For vegan, use vegan butter.
  • Add a few tablespoons of flax seed
    , chia seeds
    or some chopped nuts
    for extra protein.
  • For even more richer chocolate taste, add some coffee extract
    or use a dark chocolate cocoa powder
    or use a couple of tablespoons of black cocoa powder.
  • For sugar-free option, use a sugar like Lakanto
    as a replacement for the brown sugar or your favorite healthy sugar you love!
