Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Macadamia nuts (chopped)
- 0.5 cups Optional: White chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with a nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts and, if desired, the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Use a spoon or a cookie scoop to divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 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 for 5 minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
