Ingredients

  • 2 cups wheat flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine salt (standard addition for balance)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup melted butter, plus extra for the pan
  • 4 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F. Butter a baking sheet or a 12-cup muffin pan.
  2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
  3. In a second bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar for 2 to 3 minutes, until pale and slightly thickened. Whisk in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Rest the batter for 5 minutes.
  6. Drop generous spoonfuls of batter onto the baking sheet, spaced apart, or divide among the muffin cups, filling them two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until puffed, golden, and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool on a rack for at least 10 minutes and serve warm or at room temperature.
