# What you'll need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 1 cup yellow cornmeal
03 - 2/3 cup granulated sugar
04 - 1 tablespoon baking powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 1 cup whole milk

08 - 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
09 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Add-ins
10 - 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies style)
# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly coat each cup with nonstick spray.
02 - Combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk until thoroughly incorporated.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together whole milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until mixture is smooth.
04 - Add wet mixture to dry ingredients and gently stir just until the batter comes together. Avoid overmixing for tender results.
05 - Fold in rainbow sprinkles gently to distribute evenly throughout the batter.
06 - Divide batter evenly among the muffin tin, filling each compartment approximately three-quarters full.
07 - Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin center emerges clean.
08 - Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely.
