**Gluten-Free Basic Muffins**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy)
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the wells for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in dense muffins.
5. If desired, this is the perfect time to fold in your favorite mix-ins such as blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts for added flavor and texture.
6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each well about two-thirds full to allow room for the muffins to rise.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve these Gluten-Free Basic Muffins warm or at room temperature for a delightful gluten-free treat that everyone will love!
