Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your muffins rise beautifully and bake evenly.
Step 2: Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or line it with paper liners to prevent sticking.
Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs until well combined. Add in the milk and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
Step 4: In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the leavening agents.
Step 5: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Step 7: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Step 9: In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar with 2 to 4 teaspoons of milk and the clear vanilla extract. Stir until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.
Step 10: Once the muffins have cooled completely, drizzle the glaze over the tops, allowing it to pool slightly.
