Ingredients
  

  • 1⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup Maple Syrup
  • 4 Eggs
  • 2½ tbsp Milk 2%
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • ⅔ cup Light Olive Oil
Optional
  • ¼ cup Sprinkles, Chocolate Chips

Equipment

  • 1 Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • 1 Mixing Bowl or Kitchen Mixer
  • 9 Muffin Liners
  • 1 Muffin Pan
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Cooling Rack

Method
 

  1. The fun thing about this recipe is its simplicity! Just mix all the ingredients together - no need to worry about the order - until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. You can use your stand mixer, hand mixer, or even mix by hand. It’s that easy!
  2. Now is the time to mix in your sprinkles, chocolate chips, or anything else you'd like before moving on to the next step.
  3. Use a medium-sized cookie scoop to fill the muffin liners with batter. If you prefer not to use liners, be sure to grease the muffin pan in advance.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Bake the muffins for about 15 minutes. To check if they're done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the muffins are fully baked.
  6. Let the muffins cool on a cooling rack. Enjoy them once they're cool!
