What Does Lactose Free Mean?
First and foremost, I try my best to incorporate lactose free ingredients in all my recipes. These ingredients can include, butter, milk, cream cheese etc. With that being said, sometimes it is hard to make an entire recipe using ALL lactose free ingredients. For example, my ice cream recipes include, condensed milk- NOT LACTOSE FREE.
Contrary to what some may believe, lactose – free is not the same as dairy free. Lactose – free still contains milk, however, there is a certain component, I believe a type of sugar (I may be wrong) where the lactose is removed from dairy, making it lactose – free. Dairy free on the other hand, contains ZERO milk. Alternatives for dairy free are almond milk, oat milk, soy milk etc. You can learn more about the differences here.
Which Ingredients Are Lactose Free?
- Sour Cream – I used Gay Lea Lactose Free Sour Cream

Step By Step Instructions:
Step One:
First, Preheat your oven to 350F
Grease your muffin tray with cooking oil or spray. I like to use canola oil.
Gather all your ingredients, measure everything then set aside.
Step Two:
In a mixing bowl, add flour baking powder, salt and chocolate chips. Mix together using a whisk to get rid of any lumps.
Step Three:
In the same bowl, add eggs, honey, vanilla extract and sour cream. Mix together using a handheld mixer.
Mix just enough for the batter to be fully incorporated. Try not to over mix the batter.
Step Four:
Grab your greased muffin tray and scoop the muffin batter into the tray. Fill the muffin tray about two-thirds full. This will allow the muffins to rise evenly
Step Five:
Place the muffin tray into the oven and bake at 350F for ten minutes before dropping the temperature down to 325F and continue to bake for another twenty minutes.
Step Six:
Finally, poke the center of the muffin with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes up clean, your muffins are done. If the toothpick comes up dirty, continue to bake until done.
Serve and enjoy!

Questions About Jumbo Chocolate Chip Muffins?
Can I freeze these Chocolate Chip Muffins?
These muffins freeze well. Completely cool them, wrap them individually in saran wrap then place into a Ziploc bag for up to three months.
I don’t have a handheld mixer, can I use a whisk instead?
If you do not have a handheld mixer, no worries. You can always mix the ingredients together using a whisk or spatula.
How can I tell if the muffins are done?
Using the toothpick method is your best friend! Insert the toothpick into the center of the muffin and if the toothpick comes up clean, the muffins are baked.
I have a bee allergy can I use sugar instead?
Yes absolutely! The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of honey, you can substitute for 1 cup of sugar instead.
Tips And Variations:
- Cut the muffin in half and spread butter into the muffins.
- Try chocolate chunks instead of chocolate chips.
- Instead of sour cream, try yogurt or coconut milk.
- Don’t over mix the batter. Over mixing will result in tough and dense muffins.
- Try adding some nuts or banana for more texture and flavor.
