Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup optional mix-ins (e.g., blueberries, chocolate chips, chopped nuts)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in your optional mix-ins (such as blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts) until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
