Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
At this stage, fold in any optional add-ins like fresh or dried fruits, nuts, chocolate chips, or spices, being careful not to overwork the batter.
Evenly distribute the batter 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. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
