Cooking with my Air Fryer | Triple Chocolate Muffins Recipe.

Weekends are for baking, and that's exactly what I did last weekend. Yay! I baked a few batches of muffins, enough for the not-so-little kid to snack on for the next few days. Because you all know it gets pretty crazy around the house during weekdays, with my son's online distance learning classes and all. (Please teachers, stop sending schoolwork after 4 pm!)

Anyways, I was craving for something sweet, a bit more decadent over the weekend because it's that time of the month again when I'd have erratic food cravings. Usually, I would just rush over to the mall to buy cake or doughnuts or the like to satisfy my sweet tooth. But times sure have changed and now I go by the mantra, "Why buy when you can bake", lol. 

And with that, I came up with this Triple Chocolate Muffins recipe using the cocoa powder that I got from All About Baking at SM City San Pablo. They've recently opened store here in my area, and I'm absolutely thrilled to find a place that can cater to all of my baking needs. (Not sponsored, though!)

Triple Chocolate Muffins

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups flour 

1/2 cup cocoa powder (I used Dutch Premium Alkalized Cocoa Powder)

1 Tbsp baking powder

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1 cup milk

1 large egg, room temperature

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips 

1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips for topping

1/4 cup white chocolate chips for topping

Procedure:

1. Preheat the air fryer to 190° Celsius.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients - flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make a well at the center of the mixture.

3. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Whisk the milk, egg, oil, and vanilla extract until well-combined.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. Lightly fold in the semisweet chocolate chips into the mixture.

6. Pour the batter into paper-lined muffin cups. Sprinkle each cup with semisweet chocolate chips and white chocolate chips.

7. Set your air fryer to Bake mode and bake at 170°C for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the muffin comes out clean.
