Oreo Muffin Ingredients

The rich cocoa flavor comes from adding cocoa powder, while the vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor of the muffins, adding a delightful aroma and taste.

Adding both buttermilk and sour cream to the batter keeps these muffins incredibly moist and tender and adds a slightly tangy flavor. 

The delicious morsels of chocolate chips add pockets of melty chocolate goodness to every bite.

The star ingredient is the crushed Oreo cookies, giving a satisfying crunch and infusing the muffins with that unmistakable Oreo flavor. 

Substitutions And Additions

FLOUR: For a gluten-free option, you can use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend instead of regular all-purpose flour.

Make sure it’s specifically formulated for baking. Experiment with different types of flour, such as whole wheat flour or almond flour, for a unique flavor and texture.

COCOA POWDER: If you prefer a milder chocolate flavor, you can use Dutch-processed cocoa powder instead of unsweetened cocoa powder.

It will give the muffins a smoother and less intense chocolate taste.

BUTTERMILK: If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, you can create a substitute by mixing one tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar with one cup of milk.

Let it sit for a few minutes until it curdles, and then use it instead of buttermilk.

SOUR CREAM: Greek yogurt can be used as a substitute for sour cream if you prefer that flavor profile.

CHOCOLATE CHIPS: Get creative with the chocolate chips! Try using white chocolate, dark chocolate, or a combination of different types of chocolate chips.

You can also add additional mix-ins like chopped nuts or dried fruit.

OREO COOKIES: While the recipe calls for crushed Oreo cookies, you can experiment with different flavors of Oreos to create unique variations.

Mint, peanut butter, or even birthday cake-flavored Oreos can add an exciting twist to your muffins.

How To Make This Oreo Muffin Recipe

Get ready to embark on a delightful baking adventure as we walk through the steps of creating these heavenly Oreo muffins. 

STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two muffin tins with cupcake liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.

STEP TWO: Mix together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.

STEP THREE: In a separate bowl, beat or whisk together the eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and sour cream.

STEP FOUR: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir together just until combined. There should be lumps in the batter.

STEP FIVE: Fold in the chocolate chips and half of the Oreo pieces, reserving a few of the chocolate chips and the remaining Oreos to top the muffins.

STEP SIX: Scoop the batter into the lined muffin tin, filling each liner three-quarters of the way full.

Top each muffin with a few chocolate chips and some crushed Oreos.

STEP SEVEN: Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean.

STEP EIGHT: Cool muffins in the muffin pan for five minutes. Remove muffins to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Storage

After baking these irresistible Oreo muffins, you may find yourself with leftovers or want to prepare them ahead of time. Here’s how you can store and preserve the muffins for future enjoyment.

MAKE AHEAD: If you need to prepare these muffins in advance, you can store the batter in the refrigerator overnight.

Simply cover the batter tightly with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container.

When you’re ready to bake, gently stir the batter before portioning it into the muffin tins.

IN THE FRIDGE: To store the baked Oreo muffins, place them in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap.

The muffins can be kept in the refrigerator for two to three days. However, keep in mind that refrigeration may slightly alter their texture.

IN THE FREEZER: For longer storage, you can freeze the Oreo muffins. Allow them to cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe container or resealable freezer bags.

They can be stored in the freezer for up to three months.

When you’re ready to enjoy the frozen muffins, let them thaw at room temperature or warm them in the microwave or oven.

If using the microwave, heat them in short intervals to prevent overheating.

REHEATING: To reheat the muffins, you have a few options:

• MICROWAVE: Place a muffin on a microwave-safe plate and heat it for about 20-30 seconds on medium power. Check the muffin’s temperature and continue reheating in short intervals if needed.
• OVEN: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Place the muffins on a baking sheet and warm them for 5 to 10 minutes or until heated through.
• ROOM TEMPERATURE: If you prefer to enjoy the muffins at room temperature, simply let them sit at room temperature until they are no longer chilled.
