- To make gluten-free muffins, use 1 cup of gluten-free flour blend in place of the all-purpose flour.
- For a sweeter muffin, add 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to the batter.
- If you don't have muffin liners, you can grease a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Muffins are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow muffins to cool for a few minutes before serving.
