How to Make Basic Vanilla Muffins For Dinner Not Sweet

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together ¼ cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently by hand until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm.
