Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.75 cups Maple syrup (pure)
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Maple extract
- 0.5 cups Chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, maple syrup, granulated sugar, and milk until smooth.
Add the eggs and maple extract to the wet mixture and whisk again until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a spatula until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to prevent dense muffins.
If using, fold in the chopped pecans for added texture and flavor.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy the double maple goodness!
