Just like the delicious treats you find in the best cafes, these Thermomix Choc Chip Muffins are moorish, beautiful to eat and easy to make.
If there’s something we know, it’s that not all choc chip muffins are created equal. Some are dry and crumbly, and some are deliciously moist, like this recipe. Best of all, this is an easy Thermomix choc chip muffins recipe that you can whip up in under 5 minutes, and toss into the oven. They’ve become a huge favourite at our house over the years.
When it comes to lunchbox treats, you can’t beat these muffins, but you might also like to check out my Morning Glory Muffins, Banana Muffins, or Thermomix Fruit Muffins.
Thermomix Choc Chip Muffins Recipe
How long will Choc Chip Muffins last?
Apart from the obvious, of how hungry your family is and whether they’ll last past the first few hours, they can be kept for up to 3 days.
Can these Thermomix Choc Chip Muffins be frozen?
Absolutely. You can freeze these for up to 3 months, when stored in an air-tight container.
Should muffin batter rest before baking?
While not many will have time to rest batter, it is something that professional cafes and kitchens will do. You can keep it in the fridge overnight and then bake in the morning.
What’s the secret to great muffins?
The biggest tip for making great muffins, especially with these Thermomix Choc Chip Muffins, is to NOT overmix the batter. You want to get it to a just combined stage, and then stop. A lumpy batter is a-ok.
Recipe Variations For Choc Chip Muffins
- Add white chocolate for a triple chocolate muffin. White chocolate bits are a great way to turn this into a different kind of treat.
- Toss in frozen raspberries for a fruity treat. Add in 1/2 cup of raspberries and mix through at the last step for a delicious sweet addition.
- Add in 1/4 cup coconut, to give it a tropical flair. Coconut goes beautifully with chocolate so why not toss it in to make them coconut rough muffins?

This is recipe from the deliciously talented, Sam of The Annoyed Thyroid. Sam loves to bake, run, eat dumplings and make magic in her Thermomix (but not all at the same time.) When she’s not baking, running or eating, she likes to kick cancer’s butt and look on the bright side of life. You can find more drool-worthy recipes on her blog.
I really like Nigella, and these look fab! Sam sounds like such a super woman….<3
They taste fab too, Tashiana! I’m not a Super Woman, but it would be super cool if I was!
Oh yum, these look delicious.
They’re uber easy to make and they taste totally delicious too, Sarah.
They look delish!!!!!
Can I use almond milk to make this?
Sorry, Shirley, I just popped back and saw this. I’m sure almond milk would be fine. Please let me know if you give them a go! x
Made these! OMG! Awesomely awesome! May have eaten 2 in a row
Pleased they hit the spot! They’re all the noms, hey?!
I made these but added hazelnuts n used coconut milk turned out a treat will make them again
Oh goody! It’s handy to know that coconut milk works a treat too! Let’s hear some more lovin for those muffins!
Oh my – I just made these and the kids are fighting over the *empty* batter bowl.
Wait till they start fighting over the yummy muffins!
Oh MY goodness! These were DELISH! Gone in 60 seconds haha
The quicker a muffin is consumed, the more delicious it is! True story.
How long do these stay soft out of the freezer
Once they’re defrosted, they’re good for day, two max. I find when it comes to muffins, the fresher the better!
Do we use same steps if no thermomix?
You sure do, Dee. You can find the non-thermie Nigella recipe on Food Network 🙂
Great thank you!! They are baking as I type and they smell DELICIOUS!!!!!
These are awesome, thank you for the recipe!! Have to admit I was making them at 6am (for school lunch boxes) and didn’t read the recipe correctly and left the milled sugar in when I added the wet ingredients and they still worked fine. I’m sure after the rave reviews from the kids I will be making these again and again 🙂
Ha! I’ve done that before but luckily these muffins come out top every time!
Silly question – but how many muffin does the recipe make – 12? I want to make 4 dozen for my son’s birthday!
My hubby made these today and they are divine!
these are lovely!! I didn’t have any choc chips so i used frozen blueberries instead! Will definitely make again! Thanks for sharing!
Oh yum! I love that idea Megan!
I wanted the new thermomix tm5…. delivery is in new year, need it now… trying to find ex demo now looking at the other models on market, kitchen aid, magi mix etc any one used them.. ?
I haven’t used other machines, but I have the older Thermomix and enjoy it. 🙂
Thanks for sharing! I will be trying these very soon!
I have made these many times, but with a twist. At the start chop 100g of zucchini and reduce sugar by 100g. (I used coconut sugar). Leave it in the bowl with the ‘wet’ ingredients. Kids love them. Fussy hubby ate them until I told him they had zucchini in them!
