Allergen Information

⚠️ Wheat
⚠️ Milk
⚠️ Egg

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line and lightly grease muffin cups.

Tip: Greasing helps release the muffins easily.
2 ✓

Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a bowl.

Tip: Aeration ensures even rising.
3 ✓

Whisk eggs, cooled butter, milk, and vanilla in another bowl.

Tip: Hot butter would cook the eggs, so ensure it's cooled.
4 ✓

Fold wet into dry ingredients just until combined. Lumpy is good!

Tip: Overmixing makes muffins tough.
5 ✓

Fill cups halfway, add a spoon of caramel, top with more batter.

Tip: The batter seals the caramel inside.
6 ✓

Bake 18-20 mins. Cool 5 mins in pan.

Tip: Don't open the oven early or they might collapse.
7 ✓

Drizzle with extra caramel before serving.

Tip: Cool on rack to prevent soggy bottoms.

Recipe FAQ

Why are they flat?
You likely overmixed the batter, developing too much gluten which weighs it down.
Can I use homemade caramel?
Yes, but ensure it's room temperature so it doesn't melt the butter in the raw batter.
