Prepare Ingredients
Gather Baking Equipment
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable oil spray.
In large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In medium bowl, whisk yogurt and eggs until smooth.
Add yogurt mixture to flour mixture and use rubber spatula to stir gently until just combined and no dry flour is visible. Gently stir in melted butter.
Use ⅓-cup dry measuring cup to divide batter evenly among muffin cups (use rubber spatula to scrape batter from cup if needed).
Place muffin tin in oven and bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
Food for Thought
Marvelous Muffins
There are many reasons to love muffins. First off, you’re basically eating cake for breakfast. Second, you can stir in almost anything to make muffins just the way you like them.
How to Melt Butter
Butter can be melted in a small saucepan on the stove (use medium-low heat), but we think the microwave is easier.
Cut butter into 1-tablespoon pieces. Place butter in microwave-safe bowl.
Place bowl in microwave and cover bowl with small plate. Use 50 percent power to heat butter until melted, 30 to 60 seconds (longer if melting a lot of butter). Watch butter and stop microwave as soon as butter has melted. Use oven mitts to remove bowl from microwave.
