Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. Prepare Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until smooth and pale. Add melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix—some lumps are okay. This helps keep the muffins light and fluffy.
5. Add Optional Ingredients
Fold in chocolate chips, berries, or nuts if desired.
6. Fill Muffin Cups
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full.
7. Bake
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool and Serve
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
