How to Make Basic Muffin Recipe
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 large egg, ½ cup milk (any kind), ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix!
- If using fruit, gently fold in ¾ cup of your chosen fruit.
- Fill each muffin liner about ⅔ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
