Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth and well blended.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
In a small bowl, toss the tutti frutti with 1 tablespoon of flour to coat them. This helps prevent the fruit bits from sinking to the bottom of the muffins while baking.
Gently fold the floured tutti frutti into the batter until evenly distributed.
Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy the colorful, fruity goodness!
