1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with non-stick spray.

5. Pour in the milk.
6. Stir the mixture with a fork or whisk just until the ingredients are combined, about 30 seconds. Tip: Don’t overmix—a few lumps are fine and will keep the muffins tender.

8. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven on the center rack.
