Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup milk
2 large eggs
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional mix-ins: 1/2 cup blueberries, chocolate chips, diced banana, or chopped strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a mini muffin tin.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring just until combined; lumps are fine.
- Fold in any desired mix-ins gently.
- Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with batter, adding more mix-ins on top if desired.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes (or 15–18 minutes for regular muffin tins), until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then loosen and serve warm with maple syrup or powdered sugar.
Notes
- Add lemon zest with blueberries for a bright flavor.
- Use mashed banana and cinnamon for banana bread-style poppers.
- Make savory poppers by omitting sugar and vanilla and adding cheese or scallions.
- Store in the fridge for 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
