  2. In large bowl, stir muffin mix (3 3/4 cups/925 mL) to recombine and add in any spices from flavour add-ins.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk, yogurt, butter and vanilla. Pour over dry ingredients and sprinkle with any remaining flavour add-ins. Stir just until moistened.
  4. Spoon into prepared muffin pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until tops are golden brown and firm to the touch. Let cool in pan on rack for 10 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool completely.
