Preparation
Step 1
Choose high-quality butter without vegetable fat substitutes. The taste of your muffins will depend on it. Let it soften at room temperature in advance.
Step 2
Mix flour with baking powder and sift it. Sifting aerates the flour, which helps the muffins rise better while baking.
Step 3
In a bowl, beat the softened butter with sugar and vanilla sugar using a mixer until the mixture is creamy and fluffy. You can use vanilla powder instead—just mix it with the flour instead of sugar.
Step 4
Add eggs one at a time into the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Wash the eggs beforehand, as harmful bacteria can be present on the shells even if they look clean.
Step 5
Make sure the eggs are fully incorporated into the butter mixture.
Step 6
Add the sifted flour with baking powder. Mix until there are no lumps. You may need slightly more or less flour depending on the type.
Step 7
The batter should be smooth and moderately thick.
Step 8
You can bake the muffins in silicone or paper molds. If using metal molds, lightly grease them with vegetable oil so the muffins don’t stick and can be easily removed. Silicone molds don’t need greasing. Fill the molds about 2/3 full.
Step 9
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20–25 minutes until golden. Check for doneness with a wooden skewer—it should come out dry. Baking time and temperature may vary depending on your oven.
Step 10
Let the muffins cool slightly. Remove from the molds if using silicone or metal ones. This recipe yields about 9 muffins. Serve with tea, coffee, or milk. Enjoy!
