Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 Large eggs
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to ensure an even distribution of dry ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together with a spatula, being careful not to overmix. Stop when you no longer see streaks of flour—the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 16–18 minutes, or until the muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Enjoy these muffins as-is, or pair them with your favorite jam or butter for a delightful treat!
