Notes
- Check that the baking powder and baking soda are still fresh.
- Use eggs & milk that are at room temperature for the fluffiest muffins.
- When mixing the wet into the dry, create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients in. Gently stir the dry into the wet with a spatula as you turn the bowl in either direction. This ensures the batter is fully mixed but keeps it aerated for light and fluffy muffins.
- For soft muffins, mix the batter just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Bake the muffins just until a toothpick comes out clean.
