Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line a muffin pan with paper liners. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon). Add chocolate chips, reserving some to place on top of the muffins.
In another mixing bowl, mix together the wet ingredients (pumpkin puree, oil, yogurt, vanilla and eggs). Add sugar and mix well.
Stir in the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix only until combined. Do not overmix.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan. I use an ice cream scoop and place 1 scoop of batter per muffin liner.
Place few chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until the toothpick inserted into a center of each muffin comes out clean.
Let cool completely in the pan.
