Oreo Muffins (with whole-wheat flour and no butter)

If anything can beat chocolate, it definitely has to be oreo, Don't you agree? These oreo muffins are moist, chocolatey and so delicious. I mean can you ever go wrong with Oreos! Made with wholewheat flour these are relatively healthy and are not overly sweet, are perfect to pair with your coffee. Alternatively, you can serve these with chocolate sauce or ice-cream for a more indulgent treat. I haven't tried the egg-less version yet, but if you do let me know how it turned out. I've read you can use a flax egg or ripe mashed bananas (1/4 cup for each egg), work as well. I greatly recommend making a bigger batch because they vanish so soon!! ;) If you do make them do tag me @platetooplate on IG :)) Happy Baking!
