Tips
Don’t Overfill Your Muffin Pan Cavities – Fill 2/3 full to compensate for rise.
Use the Toothpick Test – Insert a toothpick in the center of a muffin. When it comes out clean, it’s done.
You can also check for doneness by lightly touching the top a muffin, it should spring back to shape.
Because some ovens run hotter (and cooler!) it’s best to check your muffins a couple of minutes before they are due to be ready.
Use a cookie or ice cream scoop to get picture perfect muffins. This keeps them consistent in size.
Top with chocolate chips – Save a few chocolate chips to sprinkle on top to make them look bakery made.
