Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 356°F (180°C). While your oven is warming up, line your muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.

  2. In a large mixing bowl beat the eggs and add the sugar. Mix until the sugar is well incorporated.

  3. Slowly add the oil, milk, and vanilla extract, continuing to mix.

  4. Now add all-purpose flour, baking powder, creamer powder and a pinch of salt into the mixture. Mix it till all ingredients incorporate.

  5. Using an ice cream scoop or a spoon, evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups. Fill each cup about two-thirds full to allow room for the muffins to rise beautifully.

  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Note

  • Allow your eggs, milk, and any other refrigerated ingredients to come to room temperature before starting. This helps create a smoother batter and ensures even mixing.
  • Overmixing can lead to dense and tough muffins. Once you've combined the wet and dry ingredients, mix only until just combined. A few lumps in the batter are normal and contribute to a tender texture.
