Notes
- Cornstarch helps the flour act more like cake flour (which has a lower protein content and makes bakery items extra tender). If you don't have cornstarch, substitute 1/4 cup more whole wheat flour.
- Freezing Instructions: Allow muffins to cool completely, then store in a freezer safe container and freeze for up to 3 months.
