Tips for turning out excellent muffins
First, gather all ingredients; insert paper cups or grease the muffin tin.
Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl.
Whip liquid ingredients in a separate, smaller bowl.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
Pour the egg mixture, all at once, into the well you’ve created.
Stir only until combined, leaving some lumps. This is the main trick to tender muffins.
Bake until golden brown (usually 15-20 minutes). Take care not to over-bake.
