Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and maple sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps in the batter are fine.
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 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer 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, or freeze for longer storage.
