Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Do not overmix.
At this point, choose your muffin variation and gently fold in the corresponding add-ins:
- Variation 1: Fold in 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries.
- Variation 2: Fold in 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.
- Variation 3: Fold in 1 mashed ripe banana and 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts.
- Variation 4: Fold in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon of poppyseeds.
- Variation 5: Fold in 1 cup of diced, peeled apples and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Variation 6: Fold in 3/4 cup of dried cranberries and 1 teaspoon of orange zest.
- Variation 7: Sift in 1/4 cup of cocoa powder and fold in an additional 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your freshly baked muffins, experimenting with all seven variations whenever you like!
