She Says: Chocolate Olive Oil Muffins
In the winter I baked with olive oil quite a bit and remember how delicious and unique the results were. Today I wanted to make some muffins, but was out of butter and any other oil, so I went back to baking with olive oil.
I modified Tina’s Chocolate Chip Olive Oil Muffins, which she created based on a recipe from Jenna.
Chocolate Olive Oil Muffins
You Need:
- 2 flax eggs (2 T flax + 6 T water)
- 1/2 cup turbinado sugar
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 – 4 T of Soy Milk
Steps:
- In a small bowl combine the water and flax, stir and let sit for a few minutes.
- In another bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
- Add the olive oil and flax eggs and stir.
- The batter will be thick so add enough soy milk to make them a little thinner, but not too thin! Start with 1 T and add as needed.
- Bake in sprayed mini muffin pans for 12-15 minutes at 350*.
Makes 8 mini muffins, two of which I had as a snack this afternoon.

Hey! I usually use olive oil in place of veggie oil because I usually don’t have veggie oil. Most recently I used olive oil in chocolate muffins with vanilla frosting. Very unique and fabulous tasting. I ate many (all of them) in only a few days. What? They were small (no).
How were they? They look amazing!
