Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin to prevent sticking.

- Add the egg, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Sprinkle in the baking powder and mix to incorporate it evenly throughout the batter.
3. Add Peanut Butter:
- Gently fold in the peanut butter. You can either mix it completely for a consistent flavor throughout or leave some chunks for a delightful bite of peanut butter in the muffins.
4. Fill the Muffin Tin:
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
5. Bake:
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or until warm to the touch.
