Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined; some small lumps are okay.
Spoon the batter into the greased muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Add mix-ins if desired.
Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving; can be dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with syrup.
