Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: When selecting avocados for your muffins, opt for those that are ripe and creamy. This will contribute to the moisture and richness of the muffins.
- Use a muffin pan with liners: Using muffin liners helps prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan and makes it easier to remove them once baked.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
- Let the muffins cool before serving: Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
