How to Make Super Fluffy Homemade Muffins

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Mix the Wet Ingredients

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

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix—lumps are okay! If using mix-ins, fold them in now.

Step 5: Fill the Muffin Tin

Scoop the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.

Step 6: Bake to Perfection

Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Step 7: Enjoy!

Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread!
