Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Fill the muffin tins almost to the top: This will help the muffins rise evenly.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
Let the muffins cool slightly before serving: This will help them hold their shape.
