Gather all your ingredients.
To a sieve : add 1 cup maida / all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
Sieve it well. Set aside.
To another mixing bowl : Add 1/2 cup sugar, 1 egg at room temperature and 1 teaspoon vanilla essence.
Whisk it well until the mixture turns pale.
Now add 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup curd and 1/4 cup melted butter.
Whisk it well.
Now add flour mix.
Gently fold in using cut and fold method using a spatula until no dry flour is seen. Do not over mix even if small small lumps are seen it is just ok. If you overmix then the muffins will turn out hard.
Scoop out the batter using a ice cream scooper.
Line muffin liners in a muffin pan and keep it ready. Now fill the batter almost 3/4th of the liner. While doing this you can preheat the oven at 180 deg C for 10 mins.
Bake in preheated oven at 180 deg C for 23-25 mins or until a toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean without sticking.
Cool down on a wire rack then store. Or enjoy warm muffins if you like them.
