Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 0.75 cups milk
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 pieces large eggs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with nonstick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the bowl. Gently mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

If desired, fold in your choice of mix-ins such as blueberries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts.

Step 6

Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
