Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry elements. Combine till effectively mixed.
Stir within the boiling water. The batter might be skinny, however that’s okay.
Pour the batter evenly into the ready pans.
Bake within the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or till a toothpick inserted into the middle of the muffins comes out clear.
Enable the muffins to chill within the pans for about 10 minutes, then switch them to a wire rack to chill utterly.
