How to Make A B C Muffin Base Mix

  1. In a large bowl, combine the muffin base mix, 2 cups water, 1 cup oil, 4 large eggs, and 3 teaspoons vanilla extract.
  2. Mix until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy – that's what makes them perfect!
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  4. Line a 24-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin well.
  5. Fill each muffin cup ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Enjoy your freshly baked muffins! They're also fantastic frozen – simply reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds per muffin.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
