Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cup freshly milled flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup preferred mix-in

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk well, then make a well in the center. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, oil, honey, buttermilk, and vanilla until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in desired mix-in like blueberries, mashed banana, or chocolate chips.
  • Scoop the batter into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 15 minutes (or 12 minutes for mini muffins), until the tops are golden and spring back when lightly touched.
