An easy breakfast the entire family will love! These Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins make an easy breakfast recipe plus they are so simple to freeze! Make these ahead, freeze them, and you have quick breakfast for those rushed mornings!
Do your kids love muffins as much as mine?
I think muffins are my kids’ favorite breakfast item! They are pretty high on my list of favorites also and these Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins are easy to make plus they taste amazing. I usually serve mine with fresh fruit, yogurt, and of course a big cup of coffee for me! If you are not a morning person or you just have busy mornings then make sure to check out how I freeze these muffins for a quick reheat in the morning.
How to make Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins:
When you re ready to start cooking go ahead and preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Then prepare a muffin tin with non stick cooking spray or muffin tin liners. Whisk together oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl beat eggs then add it to other ingredients. Add milk and oil to the large mixing bowl with ingredients and mix until combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon dough into each muffin tin about 3/4 way full. Bake for 17-18 minutes or until muffins are cooked though and a toothpick can come out clean.
Can I freeze these Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins?
Freezing these muffins would make for a great breakfast when you are in a pinch. Follow the directions above and once your muffins are done allow them to cool on a cooling rack (or toss them on a plate) until they are completely cooled. You can wrap each muffin in plastic wrap and place them in a large freezer bag. Add the name and data to your freezer bag so you don’t forget. These muffins should last 2-3 months once frozen. When you re ready to eat them remove them from wrapping and warm in the oven at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes. You could also use a toaster oven or microwave for a quick warm-up.

Nutrition
Can you use skim milk or half and half for this recipe. I don’t have whole milk.
Yea you can. That would be fine. It would adjust the nutritional facts a little, but not too bad.
Made these and they were extremely dry, is the amount of baking powder correct?
I am making these right now and had the same thought. I don’t think I’ve ever used so much baking powder!
You could try using 1 tablespoon if you would like. I use two to ensure the muffins rise properly.
I made mine with white chocolate chips and craisins.
Yummy!
That sounds yummy!
Can you substitute almond milk for milk?
Hi Paige, I have not yet tried that but most of the time you can substitute almond milk for the same amount of milk.
Here is a good article that hopefully helps, https://www.livestrong.com/article/553567-substituting-with-almond-milk-for-baking/
I would love to know how they turned out!
yummy! my kid’s favorites are raspberry from our garden. or pumpkin chocolate chip muffins….
Yum! I will have to try it like that!!
I only baked mine at 350 degrees for 30 minutes and they were perfect.
SO glad you like them Linda!!
