Ingredient List
Freshly Milled Flour
Freshly milled flour provides whole-grain goodness, packed with nutrients and perfect for wholesome baking.
Chocolate Chips
I use dark chocolate in all my recipes for the healthy benefits and we enjoy the rich flavor. Feel free to mix it up with ilk chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, just know this will result in a sweeter muffin.
Cocoa Powder
Cocoa power is what give these double chocolate muffins their rich flavor and dark color. For health benefits, you can replace cocoa powder with cacao powder.
Milk
Milk keeps the muffins moist and tender. For a dairy-free option, substitute with almond, oat, or coconut milk. Full-fat coconut milk adds extra creaminess.
Egg
Eggs give the muffins structure and help them rise beautifully.
Melted Butter
Melted butter adds richness to the muffins. Make sure it is cooled slightly before adding it to the batter. You can substitute with coconut oil, avocado oil, or any neutral-flavored oil.
Honey
Honey naturally sweetens the muffins and adds a warm flavor. For sweetener alternatives, use maple syrup, agave nectar, or even brown sugar for a different twist.
This recipe also includes salt, Baking Soda, and Baking Powder

Notes
What kind of wheat berries should I grind?
Soft white wheat berries would yield a fluffier, more tender muffin. Hard white wheat will also work well. I do not recommend hard red wheat berries. Mill your wheat berries on the fine setting and do not sift.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Alternatively, you can freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw to room temperature and rewarm in oven or microwave to enjoy.
