How to make Orange Muffins with Chocolate and Poppy seeds

Start by measuring everything and keeping them in one place. Get the muffin tray out, spray cooking oil in it and make sure to coat it well at the bottom and the sides. Alternatively, line with cup cake liners.
For the batter: Start by adding the oil and the sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat on high until creamed, about 2 -3 full minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
Next, add the two eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract. Again beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Then beat on high speed for until the mixture is combined.
After its mixed well, add the zest and mix.
In another large bowl, sift the the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Now add the flour mix to the wet ingredients in batches and mix with a whisk. Mix till all the flour in incorporated and everything is homogeneous.
Add the orange juice , gently fold it in. Next add the chopped chocolate chunks and fold it in.
To bake: Carefully spoon batter into prepared muffin pan, filling them all the way to the top. Top the batter with chocolate chips, strawberry puree and poppy seeds on the top.
Preheat the oven to 210 degree centigrade. Bake for 5 minutes, then keeping the muffins in the oven, lower the oven temperature to 180C degrees and bake for 16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for a bit, then carefully remove from the tray and let it cool completely. Serve and enjoy!

My Tip:

In place of strawberry puree, you can chop up fresh strawberries and add it to the muffins along with chocolate. The fruit adds freshness to the muffins and makes it extremely juicy and delicious. Do NOT skip the fruit if you can help it. Use your favorite yogurt; I prefer low fat plain Greek yogurt but regular (not Greek) would be just fine. If using regular yogurt, make sure you have drained all the water from it by tying it up in a muslin cloth and hanging it out for atleast 30 mins. Sour cream works as well. These muffins stay soft, fresh, and moist covered at room temperature for up to 5 days. Glazed or unglazed muffins freeze well for up to 2 months.
