  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, and melted butter until smooth.
  4. Gently combine wet and dry ingredients in a large bowl until no dry flour remains.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
