How To Make Buttermilk Muffins, Step-By-Step

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray the muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray or place muffin liners down and set aside. This recipe will give you about ten muffins, maybe 12.
  • Add the softened butter and white sugar to a mixing bowl. At medium-high speed, cream together for three to five minutes.
  • Next, add the egg, vanilla extract, and buttermilk to the same bowl and mix.
  • In another bowl, add the flour, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients.
  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture at medium to low speed. Mix just until the components are thoroughly combined. Do not overmix.
  • Optional Step: If you want to add blueberries or chocolate chips, do so now. Add 1/2 cup of berries or chocolate (or slightly more if you wish) and gently mix in with a spatula.
  • Fill the muffin tins or liners 2/3 of the way full with the buttermilk muffin batter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.
