1	Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F) and line a muffin pan with paper liners	12 min

3	In another bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, milk and vanilla	1 min
4	Pour the wet mixture into the dry and Fold gently, just	1 min
5	Fill the pan cups with batter to ¾ of their height	1 min
6	Bake 20–25 minutes	22 min
7	Let cool on a rack	—

Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
Combine only until no dry flour remains: a brief mix keeps muffins soft and moist, and overmixing makes them tough.
Fold with a spatula, in broad strokes from the bottom up, and stop when there's no dry flour: vigorous mixing of a batter with flour develops gluten.

Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.

For 12 muffins: 2 eggs, a cup of milk, half a cup of oil, 350 g self-rising flour, 200 g sugar, half a teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt.
Whisk the wet ingredients in one bowl, mix the dry ingredients in another and combine with a brief, minimal stir: overmixing ruins the tenderness.
Cornbread: cornmeal, eggs, sugar, melted butter and baking powder, baked at 200°C (390°F) in a greased 20×20 cm square pan for 20–30 minutes, until the top is golden.
