Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups (360ml) buttermilk (or plain yogurt thinned with milk)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons (56g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional add-ins: 1/2 cup fresh berries or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 9×13 inch sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and cinnamon if using.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Add the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract; stir gently to combine.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Some lumps are okay; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in berries or chocolate chips if using, being careful not to break the berries.
  6. Pour the batter onto the prepared sheet pan and spread evenly to about 1-inch thickness.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes, checking at 15 minutes with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the muffins cool for about 10 minutes, then cut into mini squares or rounds using a cookie cutter or knife.
  9. Serve warm or cooled.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins tender. Use room temperature eggs and buttermilk for best results. If muffins brown too quickly but are undercooked inside, tent loosely with foil. Muffins can be stored at room temperature for 2 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat gently in toaster oven or microwave.
